Binance US stated that it had conducted a review which led to the decision to delist.
“When a digital asset no longer meets our high standards, or industry circumstances change, we conduct a more in-depth review of the affected asset and assess whether further action is necessary (i.e. delisting).”
The move comes after the Securities and Exchange Commission sued Tron founder Justin Sun in March for unregistered securities offerings
The company also stated that it would be delisting SPELL, the native token of the Abracadabra Money ecosystem.
