When about Binance’s global headquarters, and whether the company will be audited, or if it plans to apply for a license in the UK, Binance’s new CEO said that he had already answered each of the questions asked “previously.” When asked again about the headquarters, Teng again brushed it off, emphasizing that it was “under consideration.”

The journalist also inquired about an audit of Binance. The organization’s CEO said that the exchange remains a private company, and therefore is not obliged to disclose financial data, although, according to him, regular audits are still carried out.
