<p>In April, Binance.US, the United States-based subsidiary of the world’s largest crypto exchange, <a href="https://crypto.news/binance-us-cancels-1b-purchase-of-voyager/">backed out</a> of a $1 billion deal to acquire the assets of the bankrupt Voyager Digital, citing regulatory uncertainties in the country.</p>

<p>The collapse of the takeover deal between Binance and Voyager has definitely made matters worse for the embattled crypto broker, and the firm’s promise to make its creditors whole seems like an arduous task at the moment.</p>
