The SEC alleges that Binance established fraudulent controls to enable its operations in the US despite regulatory restrictions.

The charges come amidst the US government's intensified efforts to enhance regulatory oversight in the cryptocurrency industry. Binance founder Changpeng Zhao stated that the company had not yet received the charges and pledged to respond once they had reviewed the complaint.
