The U.S. Department of Justice is conflicted about the decision to charge the crypto exchange in the 2018 anti-money laundering laws investigation.
DOJ Considers Charging Binance
The crypto exchange, the largest in the world by trading volumes, has been the subject of a long-running investigation into its compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) laws. The investigation started back in 2018 and has amassed evidence that, according to some federal prosecutors, is sufficient to charge the company. Reuters reports that around half a dozen federal prosecutors believe the evidence collected against the exchange will be sufficient to back up filing criminal charges against individual Binance executives, including CEO Changpeng Zhao. However, other prosecutors have protested, saying that more crucial evidence is required to move legally against the crypto exchange.
Other Departments Involved
Besides the Justice Department, three other government agencies are involved in the investigation.
