  • The court hearing between Binance and the SEC has been postponed to January 22nd, 2024 due to inclement weather.
  • The SEC filed charges against Binance in June 2023, alleging unregistered trading platforms and securities sales. Binance believes the charges represent overreach.
  • The outcome of the Binance case could set an important precedent for other pending and future crypto exchange lawsuits with the SEC.

The court hearing between Binance and the SEC scheduled for today has been postponed due to inclement weather. A new hearing date has been set for Monday, January 22nd, 2024. This delay gives both sides additional time to prepare their arguments in this high-profile case.

Background on the SEC Charges

The SEC’s Allegations Against Binance

The SEC filed charges against Binance and its former CEO Changpeng Zhao on June 5, 2023. The securities regulator alleged that Binance operated unregistered exchanges, broker-dealers, and clearing agencies. It also claimed Binance engaged in the unregistered offer and sale of securities.

Additionally, the SEC accused Binance of misrepresenting trading controls and oversight on its American platform, Binance.US.

Binance’s Stance

According to sources, Binance is unwilling to settle with the SEC out of court. The company believes doing so could require admitting certain cryptocurrencies involved are securities. This could negatively impact Binance’s business model.

Binance also believes the SEC is overreaching and has not sufficiently demonstrated fraud. The exchange sees the case as an example of regulatory overreach.

Other Recent SEC Crypto Exchange Lawsuits

The SEC filed similar charges against Coinbase just one day after targeting Binance. In a recent Coinbase hearing, the judge addressed dismissing the case but did not rule from the bench.

In November, the SEC also filed comparable charges against Kraken. However, that case is less advanced than the Binance and Coinbase lawsuits.

What to Expect at the Upcoming Hearing

Both sides will present arguments regarding the SEC’s charges and whether the case should proceed or face dismissal. While an immediate ruling is unlikely, the hearing will provide insight into the judge’s perspective.

The outcome of the Binance case could set an important precedent. How the court handles the SEC’s allegations against Binance may influence other pending and future crypto exchange lawsuits.

Conclusion

The postponed Binance hearing is now scheduled for January 22nd. The ongoing legal battle between one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges and the SEC will be closely watched by the crypto community. The court’s decision on whether to allow the SEC lawsuit to move forward or dismiss the case could have significant ramifications across the industry.
