Binance CEO Refutes Claims of Palestinian Asset Seizures
Richard Teng asserts that only accounts linked to illicit activities were affected, countering allegations of widespread fund confiscations.
- Ray Youssef, CEO of Noones, accused Binance of freezing all Palestinian funds at Israel's request.
- Teng labeled the allegations as 'FUD,' emphasizing compliance with global anti-money laundering laws.
- A letter from Israel's Counter Terror Financing Bureau was cited as evidence but lacks verification.
- Israel has seized funds from 190 Binance accounts since 2021, reportedly tied to terrorism.
- Binance faced a $4.3 billion fine last year for anti-money laundering violations.
