Latest Binance.US News

Binance has been sending users who live in the United States email notices warning them that they have 14 days to remove their funds from the platform. The email says, Dear user, as we constantly perform periodic sweeps of our existing controls, we noted that you are trying to access Binance while having identified yourself as a US person. Please note that as per our terms of use, we are unable to service US persons. Please register for an account over at our partner, Binance US. You have 14 days to close all active positions on your account and withdraw all your funds, failing which your account will be locked. Individuals who live in the United States are not permitted to trade on Binance.com, and instead, are supposed to trade on Binance.US.

Binance has threatened to clamp down on United States users before, but has never threatened to lock user accounts.
