Binance Seeks Brazil License, Delists 22 Assets
Binance, a major cryptocurrency exchange, is applying for regulatory approval to continue operating in Brazil. The filing comes as Binance limits eight products and delists 22 cryptocurrencies for Brazilian users. This move reflects rising compliance pressure on big crypto firms, as Brazil introduces strict financial regulations focusing on safety and official oversight. As a result, Binance has suspended eight products and stopped trading 22 tokens, including USDe, USTC, XVG, DCR, MANTRA, and ZIL. Customers can still withdraw balances from affected tokens, and active positions in restricted products can be shrunk or closed out according to the platform's rules. Binance aims to ensure full compliance with Brazil's updated laws, which include better protection for user funds and stronger measures against financial crime.
