O diretor da exchange cripto Binance Brasil, Guilherme Haddad, foi convocado pelo deputado Alfredo Gaspar.

Novo CEO da Binance promete melhorar a confiança dos investidores

  • O novo CEO da Binance planeja cumprir os reguladores.
  • A Binance registrou saídas massivas nas últimas 24 horas. 

O novo CEO da Binance, Richard Teng, fez sua primeira declaração oficial publicar as the company’s boss. Teng was surprisingly announced as CEO of the world’s biggest crypto exchange on Tuesday following the resignation of Binance founder and former CEO Changpeng Zhao.

Binance’s settlement with the Department of Justice has raised concerns amongst its users, especially about breaches of trust. However, Teng assured Binance users that “the foundation on which Binance stands today is stronger than ever.” The new CEO pledged to improve investor confidence, collaborate with regulators, and boost Web3 adoption.

Teng, a seasoned professional from Singapore’s industry, joined Binance in 2021 to increase its global compliance. Teng began his career with Binance as CEO of Binance Singapore and was appointed head of regional markets in May this year. 

Teng se junta à Binance com uma vasta experiência. Antes de ingressar na bolsa, atuou como CEO da Autoridade Reguladora de Serviços Financeiros no Mercado Global de Abu Dhabi. Teng também trabalhou como diretor regulatório na SGX, onde ajudou a garantir a conformidade com as políticas. 

Qual é a situação na Binance?

Data from blockchain security company Nansen confirms massive withdrawals from Binance over the past 24 hours. Outflows from the exchange have exceeded $1 billion, driven by Binance’s settlement with the DOJ and CZ’s resignation from the firm. 

The BNB coin took a major hit and has slipped by over 8% since the news broke. Crypto experts are curious to find out if the exchange will survive this transition and how it will pay the settlement fees. Yesha Yadav, a professor of law, explained that “the sum of $4 billion is clearly very large and will create real pain for Binance’s balance sheet.”

Yadav disse à CNBC em uma entrevista

This fine does not appear to be aimed at dealing a fatal blow to the exchange. Based on Binance’s dominant position within the crypto-ecosystem over a number of years, CZ’s personal wealth, and continuing trading volumes despite declines in overall crypto trading volume as well as in Binance’s market share relative to other venues, I doubt that Binance will face risks to its solvency in paying this fine.

Apesar da pesada penalidade, a Binance continuará operando, embora com medidas mais rigorosas diretrizes. A bolsa é obrigada a manter um programa de conformidade bem-sucedido para garantir que suas operações cumpram os regulamentos antilavagem de dinheiro dos EUA. O acordo também exige que a exchange nomeie um monitor de conformidade terceirizado.

Some of Binance’s competitors, including Coinbase, Kraken, and OKX, might try to capitalize on the circumstances. However, both Coinbase and Kraken have legal issues with the SEC. The SEC sued Kraken on Monday, claiming that the exchange mingled $33 billion in cryptocurrency assets owned by its customers with corporate assets, putting users at serious risk of losing a sizable amount of their funds.
