It is responsible for an estimated 60 percent of centralized virtual currency spot trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The violations include failure to prevent and report suspicious transactions with terrorists, including ISIS, Hamas\u2019 al-Qassam Brigades, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and al-Qaeda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The violations also included ransomware attackers, money launderers, and other criminals, as well as matching trades between US users and those in sanctioned jurisdictions like Syria, Iran, North Korea, and the Crimea region of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBinance turned a blind eye to its legal obligations in the pursuit of profit. Its willful failures allowed money to flow to terrorists, cybercriminals, and child abusers through its platform,\u201d said Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Settlement agreement of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) assesses a civil money penalty of $3.4 billion, imposes a five-year monitorship, and requires significant compliance undertakings, including to ensure Binance\u2019s complete exit from the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Settlement agreement of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) assesses a penalty of $968 million and requires Binance to abide by a series of robust sanctions compliance obligations, including full cooperation with the monitorship overseen by FinCEN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Binance agreed to identify and report to FinCEN the suspicious transactions that it processed and willfully failed to report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Emma Jamal<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The #US Department of the Treasury holds #Binance and its
