A recent report by <a href="https://cryptoquant.com/insights/quicktake/655e0b13ddc9c407ec318873-BTC-moving-from-Binance-to-Coinbase-Pro?utm_source=telegram&amp;utm_medium=sns&amp;utm_campaign=Quicktake&amp;utm_content=Gaah">CryptoQuant</a> has revealed the transfer of 5,000 Bitcoins from Binance to its major market competitor, Coinbase. This transaction occurred shortly after Changpeng Zhao, the former CEO of Binance, announced his resignation. 
Following the transaction, Coinbase’s Bitcoin reserves increased by approximately 12,000 BTC, whereas Binance’s reserves decreased by 5,000 BTC. This transfer is noteworthy as the approval of the Bitcoin ETF Spot appears imminent, suggesting that Binance is possibly preparing for new market entrants.

Coinbase, recognized as a leading US exchange, particularly in terms of lobbying and regulations, is known for its substantial institutional investor base. Understanding the actions of such influential institutions is crucial, given their impact on the crypto market, especially with the potential introduction of spot bitcoin ETFs. 
Despite these developments, Binance Spot, a global leader in the cryptocurrency space, has maintained a trading volume approximately six times higher than that of Coinbase in the past 24 hours.

Negotiations with the US Department of Justice 
Binance Holdings Ltd. is reportedly in talks with the US Department of Justice (DOJ) to settle allegations of criminal activity, with discussions revolving around a potential $4 billion agreement. The possibility of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao facing criminal charges in the US is also a subject of these negotiations. 
Investigations and Allegations 
The company is currently under investigation by American authorities for accusations related to bank fraud, money laundering, and violations of sanctions rules. A resolution is expected in the coming weeks. 
Changpeng Zhao’s Resignation 
In a significant leadership shift, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao announced his resignation as CEO of Binance on November 21. In a statement on the social media platform X, Zhao expressed his internal conflict over the decision and his commitment to address past mistakes. Emphasizing that stepping down was in the best interest of Binance, the community, and himself, Zhao remained optimistic about the future of Binance.
