TradingKey - TradingKey – Binance CEO Richard Teng claims that the Trump administration has given the cryptocurrency industry a fresh start, and he is waiting for further clarity on the U.S. situation.
Recently, Richard Teng expressed satisfaction with Trump’s new policies on cryptocurrency, noting a significant difference from the Biden administration. He stated that under Trump’s leadership, the U.S. has moved away from a "somewhat oppressive" regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, he believes the crypto industry has experienced a reset, marking a new beginning.
Previously, President Trump stated, "I have signed an executive order to ensure that the U.S. leads in artificial intelligence and to end the Biden administration’s war on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, signaling the arrival of a new era for digital assets."
Despite being the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, Binance does not have a headquarters. Richard Teng mentioned that Binance is carefully considering several different locations, and the board hopes to finalize a decision soon. Additionally, he revealed that Binance is waiting for further clarity from the U.S. before deciding on its plans in the region.
Initially, Binance's headquarters was set in China. However, in 2017, as China imposed restrictions on cryptocurrency exchanges, Binance moved to Japan and later to Malta. Currently, the exchange does not have an official corporate headquarters.
