Binance Enters The Regulatory Fray

Over the past several months, regulators have watched crypto company after crypto company file for bankruptcy. Some crypto founders have become fugitives from the law, and others have been arrested for allegedly breaking laws. Some customers have lost a lot of money, and the prospects for recovery are in some cases, bleak.

And after months on the sidelines, now, regulators have begun fighting back. In the first two months of this year alone, we’ve seen a couple of really significant escalations. In this episode, a look at what’s happening with stablecoins – the crypto tokens that are supposed to hold their value, and that are typically backed by some real-world financial asset like the US dollar or US treasuries.

Binance is the largest crypto exchange in the world, by any measure. And it’s been particularly affected by some of these regulatory moves. So, what’s at stake for Binance and what could all of this mean for the industry? Bloomberg reporter Emily Nicolle joins.
