Ah, Binance, you dirty dog! Uncle Sam says you’re in big trouble!
If the US government’s case is valid, you can expect some sort of punishment. Whether it’s a bank-style fine or actual jail time, we’ll see. I’ll leave the legal analysis to others—please comment if you have any insight on this!
Most of the charges against Binance refer to past actions that Binance may no longer be doing. Also, they seem like run-of-the-mill shenanigans that lots of exchanges do. You can bet other exchanges are doing the same thing.

Unless Binance settles this case, it’ll take years to sort this out. The US government served XRP in December 2020 and its case is still in court. XRP’s price is higher now than it was then, even after dropping 70% from its 2021 high.
