BINANCE IS STARTING ANEW IN GREAT BRITAIN



After recent difficulties between the FCA and Binance, the crypto exchange is now looking to relocate to the UK. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) aims to meet all UK tax authorities' requirements over a period of 6-18 months.

Trouble between FCA and Binance

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is an independent financial market regulator in the UK. It is subject to around 51,000 financial services and financial markets in the United Kingdom.

Binance has some time ago with some financial authorities struggling had since the stock market in different countries acted without licensing. One of the first countries to severely restrict Binance's trading was the UK.

Other countries reacted less strongly to the non-regulation of Binance by the respective tax authorities. For example, in Germany or the USA, trade was not directly prohibited, but conditions were created that must be met by a certain date. As a first step, Binance announced in June that all futures and derivatives in Germany will be discontinued in December 2021 .

Binance on Regulations-Course

When one negative headline after another hit Binance, the exchange decided to face the regulations of the respective countries and to comply with them in order to obtain the appropriate licensing for financial transactions.

CZ announced in an interview today with the British daily The Telegraph that the exchange is working to meet the requirements of Great Britain. Binance is expected to become a registered crypto asset company in the UK within a period of 6-18 months. To do this, he is considering setting up a subsidiary in the United Kingdom.

CZ explains:

We are fully at work again. We are making a number of very significant changes in organizational structures, product offerings, our internal processes and the way we work with regulators. 

Crypto beats fiat

The crypto market has been inundated with red numbers for the past few days. Experienced hodlers see this crash as a good point of re-entry and keep their resting heart rate low. Of course, these people also include the CEO of Binance.

In the interview, CZ emphasized once again that cryptocurrencies and the underlying industry make a “useful contribution to human society” and promote technological progress. He also explains cryptocurrencies as a better version of fiat money:

Money is still very clunky today. We can maintain the same level of security and compliance, but at the same time make it a lot faster, easier, and cheaper to process.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
