Crypto exchange Binance and its CEO Changpeng Zhao are making headlines once again as news of the company\u2019s acquisition moves hit the industry. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to <\/span>recent news<\/span><\/a>, Binance acquired a 41% stake on Korean crypto exchange Gopax. The deal was originally scheduled to be revealed last year, and it involved Binance buying the stock holding from Lee Jun-hang, Gopax’s top stakeholder.<\/span><\/p>\n

BNB, Binance\u2019s native token, took the news to heart with a <\/span>weekly gain<\/span><\/a> of 5.5%. As of this writing, BNB is trading at $255, data from Coingecko shows.<\/span><\/p>\n

Binance And South Korea, A Mixed History<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This has not been the first time Binance entered a business venture in Korea. In the period of 2020 to 2021, <\/span>Binance KR<\/span><\/a> trading pairs and a hard shutdown of the service in the country was completed. This was due to <\/span>tight crypto regulation<\/span><\/a> in the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Gopax was hit hard after <\/span>FTX collapsed<\/span><\/a>. During this time, the exchange <\/span>experienced<\/span><\/a> a liquidity problem forcing the Korean exchange to suspend payments. <\/span><\/p>\n

With the onset of Binance capital flowing into the exchange, we can expect Gopax to rebound from last year\u2019s disaster.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Binance, on the other hand, <\/span>promised<\/span><\/a> to comply with local regulation as they <\/span>partnered<\/span><\/a> with the port city of Busan in August of last year. This partnership will develop the city\u2019s blockchain infrastructure for its future city-backed <\/span>digital asset exchange<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What Does This Mean To BNB?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With almost no barrier now, this development should push through in the coming weeks as the acquisition is being finalized. With this in mind, Binance\u2019s presence in South Korea would further cement the company as a <\/span>major player<\/span><\/a> in the centralized exchange market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, one can\u2019t be too sure of the future. Nearly a month ago, a <\/span>Reddit post<\/span><\/a> regarding Binance\u2019s supposed audit exposed a concerning development.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Image: Business2Community<\/pre>\n

According to a post, the \u201caudit\u201d was not actually an audit but only an Agreed-Upon-Procedure (AUP) which does not guarantee the truth of its <\/span>proof-of-reserves<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Not to mention that right now, the company is <\/span>under fire<\/span><\/a> from the SEC as it aggressively tries to acquire Voyager Digital. Whether this acquisition pushes through or not, BNB bulls are poised to breach the $281 price resistance level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, with the token being highly correlated with Ethereum, we might see BNB drop if macroeconomic indicators reveal a worsening situation. For now, investors and traders of BNB should consolidate their gains at $252.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If ever the bears claw back their spot in the market, BNB can fall back to $240 for a reliable support range. With the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data being rolled out next week, investors and traders should be prepared to deal with volatility as any movement in ETH will determine whether BNB will go up or down.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn. Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin.

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.
