A major cryptocurrency exchange has made a significant announcement concerning its US branch.
The market tends to react to FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt), so being prepared is essential. Binance is currently facing a challenging legal battle with the SEC and dealing with various issues in its US operations.
Binance System Update
Today’s announcement states that Binance US will undergo planned maintenance, leading to a temporary halt in deposit/withdrawal transactions.
The advance notice aims to prevent panic in the market, but such maintenance is susceptible to FUD. If the maintenance extends, the market might interpret it as a reason for a decline, leading to surprise sales. Investors should be prepared for possible unforeseen selling.
Currently, Binance US can operate in the US by holding assets in the country until the end of the lawsuit, thanks to court approval. However, the absence of market makers is causing abnormal price movements in Binance US pairs.
The company’s inability to work with US banks makes it difficult for customers to deposit funds, leading to reduced liquidity and a lack of market makers, resulting in price fluctuations below or above the market.
Investors need not worry presently, as the price of Bitcoin did not react negatively to the recent announcement.
