Here are the most popular stories from the crypto world as featured in CryptoNewsLAND (CNL). 

After being accused of creating unregistered securities together with Paxos Trust Company, with whom Binance had collaborated to create the Binance USD (BUSD) stablecoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange platform, Binance, has been engaged in a legal battle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Crypto Regulations

After the failure of FTX in November of the previous year, crypto regulations in the United States are at the forefront of regulation of cryptocurrency firms, which places them in the precarious position of being exposed to the risk of yet another cryptocurrency failure taking place in the cryptocurrency space.

Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the CEO of Binance, the most prominent cryptocurrency exchange platform in the world, has voiced his concerns about the current state of cryptocurrency regulation. In light of the increasing crypto regulations, particularly in the United States, CZ has issued a call for everyone, particularly cryptocurrency investors, to band together and show solidarity. 

This follows Binance’s recommendation of guidelines and industry standards to assist in bridging the gap between the restrictions now in place and the manner in which digital assets are traded. One of the instructions that have been presented is to make sure that client property is not used in an unauthorized manner.

Emerge of CBDC

In April of this year, Japan, which does not permit the use of foreign stablecoins like USDT, intends to establish a pilot program for Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC).

Uchida, the executive director of the Bank of Japan (BoJ), disclosed the Bank’s intention to establish a pilot program for digital yen after the conclusion of Proof of Concept testing that began in 2021. This announcement was made during a committee meeting that took place in on the 17th of February.

The experiment will be expanded through the use of a pilot test, which will involve the participation of private businesses in the modeling of a CBDC ecosystem. The bank official stated that during the trial phase of the project, only simulations of genuine retail transactions will take place.

Binance to Leave U.S

There have been recent rumors that Binance is planning to exit the United States (U.S.) and will sever its relations with American institutions and businesses that offer their services within the country.

CZ, however, has refuted these reports by noting that Binance would not be pulling out of providing its services in the United States; rather, the company will only be pulling out of some of the agreements that it has with the country, and not all of the ties that it has with corporations within the country.

Zhao recently indicated that the cryptocurrency company would not be delisting any cryptocurrencies that are located in the United States from its list. Despite this, the organization planned to stop supporting stablecoins like the Circle Dollar Coin (USDC).
