Binance SEC To Settle On Freezing Funds?

As per the court proceeding, the federal judge asked to enter a mediation hearing that will eventually allow the biggest crypto exchange’s US affiliate to manage its basic operations.

John Reed Stark, Former Chief of the SEC Office of Internet Enforcement addressed an argument made by the Judge in the Binance lawsuit. It indicated a skepticism in the commission’s approach towards the crypto industry with alleged forced enforcement.

From the recent Binance SEC case hearing, he derived that the parties will likely form an agreement during the mediation process with the magistrate judge. However, the federal judge might come in to decide the size of “ordinary business expenses” and other issues in the matter.
