The SEC just dropped a bombshell on Binance.US, the American arm of the world\u2019s largest cryptocurrency exchange. The regulator filed an emergency action application against Binance.US to freeze its assets, as part of the regulator’s recent crackdown on the crypto exchange.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the documents filed with the court, the request was brought forward with the intention of ensuring that the assets of Binance.US clients are safeguarded and kept in the United States.

The filing is also looking to activate other emergency relief against Binance Holdings Limited, the arm of the exchange operating globally, and its founder, Changpeng Zhao.

According to the charges, the exchange had “no oversight or controls to ensure that the assets are properly secured.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Basically, the SEC is arguing Binance.US has been illegally facilitating the trading of securities.

The commission also went after Coinbase, alleging that popular cryptocurrencies offered by the exchange qualify as securities.<\/span><\/p>\n

A big part of the crypto community seems to be unified on the matter, as many investors see this as an attack on the entire crypto industry.
