Add to note #2 the original whitepaper of the Binance coin (BNB), since this information is missing at the moment. Which does not make sense for a top 10 cryptocurrency. This page has the original and a link to the newer version of the whitepaper: https://www.allcryptowhitepapers.com/binance-coin-whitepaper/. Johnvanrijck ( talk) 10:35, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
Binance is not regulated by Malta's MFSA or any other Maltese governmental body. They even stated this themselves:
But they also claimed that the exchange had already informed the Maltese authorities that it was no longer seeking a license on the island, or an extension of “grandfathering”—a transitory period whereby license applicants were regulated by the MFSA pending the result of their license application.

@ MER-C: or @ David Gerard: we have some repeated edits that appear to me to look like a paid editor MikoloIlas ( talk · contribs) (a few suspicious edits of rock bands) over time, with repeated edits of Binance and Changping Zhao (Binance CEO). Removing controversy and then more recently adding promotional info. Article is probably a good candidate for a full auto-confirmed PP. Thanks! Jtbobwaysf ( talk) 17:29, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

In November 2019, Binance flourished its grip in India by acquiring WazirX, a Mumbai based cryptocurrency firm with the motive of promoting and adopting the use of blockchaiin technologies in India.

Binance.com is accepting the XRP/Flare Spark drop which is solely based on a formula calculated by using its client's XRP deposits and not distributing to its US Customers. This is against the rules of the Flare Drop and it should not profit from such activities. I would like to make mention of this and the class action that is forming. Please advise / comments. 112.206.77.192 ( talk) 02:27, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Under the heading United Kingdom Move this to the beginning to keep events in chronological order
"In January 2021, the FCA began requiring firms dealing with cryptocurrency to register in order to comply with anti-money laundering rules."
Change "In June 2021, Binance was ordered by the UK's Financial Conduct Authority to stop all regulated activity in the United Kingdom."
To "In June 2021, The FCA issued the following statement "Binance Markets Limited is not permitted to undertake any regulated activity in the UK. This firm is part of a wider Group (Binance Group)." add reference [36] https://www.fca.org.uk/news/news-stories/consumer-warning-binance-markets-limited-and-binance-group
Add "The statement was not directed at activities carried out by Binance.com but caused confusion in the media with some news sources stating that Binance was banned in the UK." (keep references [34][35] as examples)
Add "Binance issued a clarification on their website in July 2021."
add reference [37] https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/1e89bf44e2e041358e6b46dc9bad0b48

This goes counter to MOS:RELTIME

Binance has, on a number of occasions, halted withdrawls of various cryptoassets from their centralized exchange. (and did so earlier today for Bitcoin withdrawls halted for several hours).
Am surprised to not see this mentioned in the article, since the practice is controversial and can allow insiders to gain certain advantages in markets, especially when those markets are under stress and rapidly-changing prices are being seen. This article by Decrypt does provide a summary of several of the withdrawl halts over the past several years, and could be a source for improving the article.

The growing list of country sub-headings under Binance#Legal_status with one sentence in each (normally some sort of enforcement action by a regulator) is growing tedious. We need to find another approach for this, as sub-headings are normally to explore a concept in depth and organize (not just list one sentence). Jtbobwaysf ( talk) 22:39, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

It says that Binance is the issuer for BUSD, but in the very next line, it says Paxos is the issuer for BUSD (which is correct). This is contradictory! Binance is NOT the issuer of BUSD, so this line is incorrect. ClassicMain ( talk) 15:17, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello Wikipedia editors. I'm here as an employee and representative to Binance to request changes to the article. As required, I've disclosed my conflict of interest above and on my user page.
First, I have a couple of changes to suggest for the infobox.
If you have questions, I'd like to hear them. I'm learning the ropes here and will have more edits to suggest in the future. Thank you, RBinance ( talk) 11:53, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
"120 million users globally"could not be added because the infobox parameter where this information is to reside was not delineated in the request. Please describe which parameter should be altered. Regards, Spintendo 20:46, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm the new representative for Binance on Wikipedia, KB. I have added my COI disclosure to the banner at the top of this page, and, like our previous representative, I will follow the COI editor guidelines and avoid making direct changes to the article. I hope I can collaborate with editors to improve the article with accurate and up-to-date content. There are a few small changes I'd like to suggest:
That is all for this request. Let me know if you have questions about these changes, or feel free to implement appropriate changes on my behalf. Thank you, KB at Binance ( talk) 12:10, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
@ KB at Binance: was reading this today at Rolling Stone: "When China began threatening a crackdown on the entire crypto industry just a few months after Binance’s founding, Zhao just took his business to friendlier jurisdictions — first moving the company HQ to Japan and then to Malta. When even Malta’s regulatory requirements reportedly became too stringent for Binance, the company set off on the run once again." We have discussed location before, so I thought we would do that in a section here. I recall I was the one who updated the article to state CZ moved binance from China to Singapore. This seems to contradict that. Jtbobwaysf ( talk) 06:55, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Hi, this is KB from Binance. At Jtbobwaysf's suggestion, I made a copy of the Binance article in my sandbox to preview changes to the article. There's also a discussion on those changes going on at my sandbox Talk page. Interested editors are invited to participate. Thanks, KB at Binance ( talk) 16:34, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi, KB from Binance here. I thought I'd let editors here know that I've submitted Draft:Richard Teng for review at Articles for Creation, in case anyone is interested in taking a look and giving feedback. Thanks, KB at Binance ( talk) 15:39, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
