'House of Mirrors': SEC Demands Urgent Inspection of Binance US Assets
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has demanded that Binance US cooperate in its investigation into the crypto exchange. The SEC accused Binance US of making "half-hearted claims of irrelevance, prejudice, and burden" and failing to provide necessary information. The SEC also highlighted the departure of top executives from Binance US as further evidence of the need for expedited discovery.
