SEC Says No to Binance Asset Sale Proposal
Amid the crypto sell-off, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) moved to block the already approved sale of Voyager assets to cryptocurrency exchange Binance.
According to the regulator, the objection was dismissed because certain elements of the proposed asset restructuring may violate securities regulations in the United States.
traveler obtained approval from a bankruptcy court to sell its assets to Binance.US for approximately $1.022 billion. The American cryptocurrency exchange won the sale in December 2022, with Voyager’s expenses being covered by up to $15 million.
According to the court deposit made by the SEC on Feb. 22, opposing the proposed sale, the regulator claimed that the settlement and the debtors’ disclosure plan did not provide sufficient information about the security assets held on the Binance.US platform.
The Commission also argued that the planned purchase did not include details on whether third parties would have access to customers’ wallets or control over anyone with such access, nor did it describe the security measures in place to prevent assets being transferred to the platform.
Furthermore, the SEC said that the disclosure statement did not take into account the potential impact of regulatory actions on Binance.US and its customers’ ability to trade cryptocurrencies on the platform.
This move has brought to the fore potential concerns about the transparency and security of cryptographic transactions, especially in light of the recent controversies surrounding binance and its founder Changpeng Zhao.
