The joint notice of dismissal, signed by legal representatives from both the SEC and Binance, ends a high-profile legal clash that began in 2023.
The lawsuit had accused Binance of artificially inflating trading volumes, mishandling customer funds, and misleading investors about the platform’s compliance and surveillance mechanisms.
In addition, the SEC’s complaint alleged that Binance failed to block U.S. users from accessing its international platform and unlawfully offered trading of unregistered securities, including several tokens that were later deemed securities under previous SEC guidance.
The voluntary dismissal marks a significant development in the SEC’s evolving relationship with the crypto industry. It also raises questions about the agency’s future enforcement strategy, particularly under a shifting regulatory and political landscape.
