I read somewhere yesterday that China is welcoming all crypto exchanges to its country for a peace operation, US don't know what they are throwing out of the window right now, crypto isn't the reason why the USD is losing face, they are trying to make it look like that, but I suspect that many US citizens are moving their money off bank accounts into crypto investment and the government doesn't like this.
It's better if Binance leave the US for good, but I think it was not easy for CZ to run the Binance US in the first place, and he believes that the US citizens are playing a major part in the adoption of crypto, that's why he didn't want the US out of the book, this is my own thoughts, nothing confidential.
Is there a valid source for your statement? Wasn't it China that was aiming to prohibit all mining operations? Now that they're inviting exchanges to settle down in their country, it's kind of contradictory because China was often found to be against cryptocurrencies. Anyway, in my opinion, the SEC won't stop pursuing Binance.us, at least until a solution that benefits the SEC is found. Thus, Binance.us might be better off leaving the US market for good. The market will severely suffer, but the effects will only last for a short time.
Moreover, can someone explain the difference between Binance.us and Binance.com? Why is there a need for USA users to differentiate from regular Binance.com? Is it due to any regulations?
