Recently reported by Cointelegraph on June 7th, 2023, Binance.US had ceased trading on several crypto tokens and planned to cease advanced trading on a slew of USDT trading pairs on June 8th, 2023. This seemed to be Binance.US’ reaction to the SEC’s recent lawsuit filed against the company and its CEO Changpeng Zhao. Initially over 90 trading pairs were to be affected by the change, but Binance.US has responded to the community in support of what their customers want and will continue to allow the trading of the pairs formerly slated to cease.
An excerpt from Binance.US announcement page:
Update: Following community feedback, Binance.US will no longer remove any USDT Advanced Trading pairs. All cryptocurrencies and USDT pairs remain available to trade. Only select BTC and BUSD Advanced Trading pairs below will be removed.
