CoinGape reported that <a href="https://coingape.com/binance-dutch-netherland-us-sec-crypto-news/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Binance</a>, the world’s largest crypto exchange, exited the Dutch market in June last year because failed to meet registration requirements to operate as a virtual asset service provider (VASP) in the country.
Since Binance’s exit, the Dutch crypto market saw many crypto exchanges taking the dominant market share. However, Binance continued to work with authorities.
Recently in May, Binance helped Dutch authorities expose $30 million online scam related to ZKasino. “Binance is proud to have supported Dutch authorities in the investigation of a gambling exit scam. Our Investigations team helped lead the recovery of millions of euros.”
