Due to the exchange's protracted conflict with the UK's top regulatory watchdog FCA\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, its primary European payment partner has discontinued links after regulatory warnings from governments in five separate countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clear Junction said that it has stopped accepting payments in Pounds and Euros and that it would no longer accept deposits or withdrawals for the cryptocurrency exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The suspension was attributed to the FCA's recent regulatory caution, according to the payment processor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe decision has been made following the Financial Conduct Authority\u2019s recent announcement that Binance is not permitted to undertake any regulated activity in the UK.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Clear Junction \u2013 which had been one of #Binance's key payments partners in Europe \u2013 says it has “decided to suspend both pound and euro payments and will no longer be facilitating deposits or withdrawals<\/a> in favour of or on behalf of the crypto trading platform.” pic.twitter.com\/mGQqZWIbhU<\/p>

Binance had previously dismissed the FCA warning as a compliance warning, claiming that it was routine. Previously, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) had issued a warning against Binance, claiming that the company had not been cleared by the regulator to conduct business in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Binance had abruptly suspended Sterling Pound deposits and withdrawals via quicker payments for two days following the FCA notice. Within two days, however, the services were restored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the termination of the Coin Journal collaboration, the withdrawal of Sterling Pounds via quicker payment has been suspended once more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time of writing, Binance had not responded to the partnership's cancellation. Binance's lack of a physical headquarters has been the main source of regulatory issues for the crypto exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lack of a physical headquarters has been seen as a major issue by regulators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from the UK, officials in Japan, the Cayman Islands<\/a>, and Thailand have all issued warnings about the cryptocurrency exchange. The Thai Securities and Exchange Commission went even further and initiated criminal action against the exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Binance is the most popular cryptocurrency exchange in a number of nations, with the largest trading volume across several marketplaces. The exchange claims to have followed all of the country's local regulatory rules while in operation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
