Investors <a href="https://defillama.com/cex/binance-cex?usdInflows=true&amp;groupBy=monthly">withdrew</a> a substantial amount of $3.8 billion from the leading cryptocurrency exchange in June, marking a significant increase from the previous month and the largest outflow since December, according to data from DefiLlama. 
However, the challenges for Binance and its CEO, Zhao Changpeng, are far from over. The exchange is currently facing regulatory scrutiny in the United States, resulting in the closure of operations in various European regions, and potentially facing criminal charges in the United States. 
In addition to regulatory pressures, established financial institutions like Fidelity, BlackRock, and Charles Schwab are making moves to gain a larger share of the crypto market, adding further competition for Binance.

Sean Tuffy, a regulatory expert and former Citigroup executive, commented that Binance appears to be in real trouble as the situation continues to unfold. 
Nevertheless, Binance’s substantial size and prominence in the cryptocurrency market, with a daily trading volume of over $8.2 billion and $59 billion in assets, make it difficult to overlook. 
Despite the challenges, investors are still actively trading their chosen digital assets on the Binance platform, as the exchange remains a focus for liquidity, and attracts market participants. 
However, the current state of affairs may not be sustainable. There is growing anticipation that US prosecutors will pursue criminal charges against Binance, following the actions taken by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The issue at hand is Binance’s failure to register as an exchange, broker-dealer, or clearing firm with the SEC. 
While Binance argues that registration should not be required for digital assets, citing their differences from traditional stocks and bonds, SEC Chair Gary Gensler holds a different viewpoint.
