Patrick Hillmann, the company&#39;s chief strategy officer, acknowledged the difficulty of conducting business in the US due to the recent crackdown on cryptocurrencies. However, Binance remains committed to becoming regulated in the UK. This is a notable shift from the company&#39;s previous statements regarding the challenges of operating in the US. In 2021, Binance was ordered by the Financial Conduct Authority to halt all regulated activities in Britain due to its failure to provide crucial information about its business activities.<a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/binance-temporarily-halts-bitcoin-withdrawals-twice" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Binance</a> complies with UK regulations on money laundering and terrorism financing, using a compliance program with anti-money laundering and global sanctions principles. The program detects and addresses suspicious activity, securing approvals and registrations in other countries like New Zealand, Dubai, France, Italy, and Spain.Binance has been under scrutiny by US regulators for perceived illicit activity this year. In March, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) brought a lawsuit against the exchange, alleging that it had been operating illegally in the country and had broken the law by extensively soliciting US customers. Binance expressed surprise and disappointment in response to the CFTC complaint. The company&#39;s move to seek regulation in the UK is a strategic response to the challenges it faces in the US and demonstrates its commitment to responsible and compliant operations in the global cryptocurrency market.
