- It is related to recent developments with the SEC motion that opposes the attempt of BinanceUS to acquire Voyager Digital.
- BinanceUS entered into a deal with Voyager back in December 2022, but the SEC objected in February this year.
- Recent reports revealed some of the arguments that the US Bankruptcy Judge overseeing the case made in relation to the lack of explanation on behalf of the SEC.
- Judge Michael Wiles said:
Deliberative is one thing, but what have you done? If there are reasons to be concerned here, I need to hear specifics.
- He also said:
I’m shocked a regulator would come in and say: ‘I’m charged with regulatory authority over these things. These are reasons that I have concerns because they’re within my regulatory jurisdiction, but I’ve done nothing, I have nothing to offer to you …
- CZ, the CEO of Binance, quote-tweeted CryptoPotato’s post, saying, “Maybe we should pull out?”
- Very quickly after, he was quick to clarify that Binance is in full support of the deal:
We are still in support of the deal and helping returning funds to users as quickly as possible, if allowed to do so.
- This comes amid somewhat questionable headlines, saying that CZ is “pondering” exiting the deal “after US scrutiny.”
- Nowhere has CZ mentioned anything about “US scrutiny.”
- Interestingly enough, the report itself says that a Binance spokesperson disbands the headline, saying that the company “remains committed to the Voyager transaction.” The article was also updated to include CZ’s additional comment.
