During the Paris Blockchain Week, Binance CEO Richard Teng said the crypto exchange is carefully considering headquarters and in constructive discussions in many countries. The company has not yet made any decision but an official announcement on its headquarters will be out as soon as the decision is final.
“Our commitment extends beyond mere compliance; we aspire to elevate our standards, showcasing a demonstrable willingness to adhere to all regulations. A robust program instills confidence in our users,” said Richard Teng.
Binance continued to work extensively with regulators around the globe, but concerns over a lack of headquarters were pointed out several times due to risks to investors. Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao believed the exchange didn’t need a headquarters.
The U.S. SEC also challenged Binance and CZ for not having or hiding the location of its headquarters, in the lawsuit against Binance, Binance.US, and Changpeng Zhao.
Richard Teng also avoided questions on stating the location of Binance’s headquarters. Some believe it’s either Malta or the UAE as CZ now lives in the crypto-friendly country. The former CEO is currently staying in the continental U.S. amid a DOJ money laundering lawsuit.
