Dutch central bank fines Binance 3.3m euros
THE Dutch central bank (DNB) on Monday (Jul 18) said it had fined Binance, one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges, 3.3 million euros (S$4.68 million) for offering services in the Netherlands without being registered in the country.
The fine was issued in April 2022, following a public warning already issued against Binance last August, DNB said. The bank said in a statement that Binance in June had indicated it would appeal. REUTERS
