Binance отказывается от сотрудничества с британской Binance LTD
- Binance недавно отменила регистрацию в Великобритании в FCA.
- Криптовалютная биржа также выпустила ноту о прекращении действия мошеннической нигерийской компании, работающей под ее именем.
- В последние дни Binance прекратила свое присутствие на Кипре и в Нидерландах.
For the second time in a week, cryptocurrency exchange Binance has issued a cease-and-desist order to a fake company operating under its name. The crypto exchange took to Twitter to announce that it had issued a notice to UK-based Binance Ltd. Binance clarified that it was not affiliated with Binance LTD and called it “a scam company.”
Binance’s disclaimer came in response to a Reddit почта that suggested that the exchange “has a utility closet listed as an office in the UK.” The supposed affiliate, Binance Ltd., reportedly operates a registered office in Mildenhall, Suffolk. The government’s company register, Companies House, says Binance Ltd. shares an office location with more than 2,400 organizations.
As of this writing, the specifics surrounding Binance Ltd. are still unknown. However, the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority has previously issued public warnings about the existence of cryptocurrency “clone” businesses. Clone companies involve fraudulent organizations using the details of legitimate companies to persuade their victims.
Помимо растущего регулятивного давления, Binance пришлось дистанцироваться от предполагаемых поддельных компаний, работающих под ее брендом. В настоящее время в Великобритании есть несколько фирм, работающих под брендом Binance. Недавно Binance издала аналогичный приказ о прекращении деятельности предполагаемого нигерийского филиала, который, как сообщается, привлекает местных инвесторов.
Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao took to Twitter to brand the company as a “scammer entity.” The news came as Nigerian regulators claimed Binance had operated illegally in the West African nation and was not registered with the appropriate authorities. Interestingly, the operators of Binance Nigeria Limited allegedly confirmed that they had planned to sell the company to Binance.
Meanwhile, Binance Global hasn’t had the best of times in recent weeks. The company has recently отозван его присутствие из Нидерландов, Кипра и Канады. Кроме того, на криптобиржу подали в суд Комиссия по ценным бумагам и биржам США за продажу ценных бумаг и нецелевое использование средств клиентов.
