The SEC withdrew the case he filed for Binance: Is it a step back in crypto arrangements?

The US Securities and Stock Exchange Commission (SEC) ended the case against Binance and its founder Changpeng Zhao after two years. The case is being closed so that it cannot be opened again.

The US Securities and Stock Exchange Commission (SEC), the crypto currency exchange Binance and its co -founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) officially withdrew the case containing bad management of customer funds and misleading statements. This development is interpreted as one of the most powerful signals of SEC’s aggressive stance for the crypto industry.

⚖️ Joint withdrawal Request: The case is closing

On May 29, 2025, a joint application was made to the Washington DC Federal Court by SEC, Binance and CZ.

The requested thing: the termination of the case of the SEC’s case in 2023 in a way “with prejudice”.

Justification: New strategies and institutional changes of the Crypto Mission Force may have made it unnecessary to maintain this case.

📅 Short Time Table of the Case

June 2023 sued SEC, Binance, CZ and Bam Trading. February 2025 parties suspended the case. April 2025 was decided to stop the second time. May 2025 Parties made a joint application to the court for the closure of the case.

🧠 What was claimed?

SEC suggested that Binance sold indifferent securities in the United States, managed customer funds badly and misleading investors with misleading statements.

Especially the activities carried out through Bam Trading were on the target of the SEC.

🧭 What does it mean?

This decision may indicate that SEC has entered a more cautious and perhaps more conciliatory path in crypto arrangements.

In the crypto industry, many people have criticized the SEC’s attempts to regulate over aggressive, uncertain and judiciary in recent years.

The phrase “with prejudice” means an important victory for Binance because the case will not be opened again.
