- Regulator says admissions in recent settlement show merits
- Binance has asked for court to dismiss SEC’s lawsuit
The Securities and Exchange Commission says Binance Holdings Ltd.’s recent $4.3 billion settlement with the Justice Department and other US authorities bolsters its own case against the world’s biggest crypto exchange.
Despite not being part of the agreement, the SEC argued on Friday that the federal court in Washington hearing its case should weigh admissions by Binance and the firm’s former chief executive, Changpeng Zhao, in the Nov. 21 settlement. The firm and Zhao have asked the court to dismiss the SEC’s lawsuit.
Representatives for Binance and a defense lawyer for Zhao didn’t immediately respond to emailed requests for comment.
