In a significant development, U.S. District Judge Zia Faruqui rejected the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) request to inspect documents from Binance U.S. The American wing of Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, has thus secured a minor victory amidst ongoing legal struggles. Besides facing an SEC lawsuit, the firm has experienced a drop in trading volume and critical personnel departures. 
Consequently, the SEC sought to scrutinize the relationship between Binance U.S. and Ceffu, a custody platform. The regulatory agency suspected Ceffu was a Binance-related entity that transferred U.S. customers’ funds out of the country. Such a move would violate previous agreements between Binance U.S. and the SEC. Moreover, the commission was keen on inspecting the firm’s communications with its wallet custody service providers. 
However, Judge Faruqui sided with Binance U.S., finding the SEC’s request “overboard” inconvenient. The court effectively halted the SEC’s efforts to dig deeper into Binance U.S.’s operational mechanics. Additionally, Binance U.S. argued that they have always strived for transparency and compliance with U.S. regulations. The court’s decision has tilted the scales, albeit slightly, in Binance U.S.’s favor. 
Yet, the crypto exchange is not entirely out of the woods. Judge Faruqui also mandated the company to submit further documentation. This was a significant footnote to the ruling, implying that the court isn’t confident in Binance U.S.’s control over its assets and business operations. 
This ruling offers a momentary respite for Binance U.S. as it battles multiple fronts, including legal and operational challenges. The rejection of the SEC’s inspection request could serve as a precedent for other crypto exchanges facing regulatory scrutiny. Hence, the cryptocurrency community will closely monitor how this case unfolds, as it could dictate the regulatory landscape for crypto exchanges in the United States.
