Hong Kong, with crypto hub ambitions, urges lenders to support virtual-asset firms with ‘their legitimate need for bank accounts’ - Fortune

Image
Hong Kong urged banks to provide services to licensed virtual-asset firms, part of the city's push to become a crypto hub and a stance that contrasts with a crackdown on the digital-asset sector in the US. Banks should support regulated virtual-asset businesses with "their legitimate need for bank accounts" in the city, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority said in a circular late Thursday signed by Deputy Chief Executive Arthur Yuen. The statement also enjoined lenders to train staff and form dedicated teams to support the digital-asset sector while avoiding a "wholesale de-risking approach" that turns away new industries or certain nationalities. A major challenge for crypto companies globally is that banks are increasingly skeptical about the industry following a market crash and blowups like the FTX exchange. The collapse of crypto friendly lenders Signature Bank and Silvergate Capital Corp. in this year's US banking ...

Binance Back Open for Business in Russia - BeInCrypto

Image
Binance is reportedly allowing users to purchase crypto with Russian bank cards after curbing its service in the country following international sanctions. As reported on BeInCrypto's Russian language site, the exchange reintroduced compatibility with Russian bank-issued cards this week.  EU Sanctions and Russia's Crypto Binance's crackdown on Russian accounts began following international sanctions over the invasion of Ukraine. The first move came in March when Binance blocked transactions with cards issued by banks located in the Russian Federation. That decision followed a major withdrawal of Visa and Mastercard, who both ceased providing network services in the country. A month later, in response to EU sanctions, Binance deactivated the accounts of many of its major clients. Since then, Russian users that hold crypto worth over 10,000 euros have been banned from making new deposits or trading. Users with less than 10,000 euros in crypto remained act...

Teddy Talks: How Sports Betting Companies Are Navigating Early ... - Sports Handle

Image
In the raucous 2014 film Neighbors , Zac Efron portrays Teddy, a party-hearty fraternity heartthrob with chiseled abs and alpha-bro status. Nearing graduation and not having focused much on scholastic pursuits, Teddy attends a campus job fair, where he quickly realizes that in order to thrive in the post-collegiate world, he'll have to play by the rules and grow up fast — to traverse the gulf between Ted Rocks and TED Talks, if you will. Current public sentiment would lead one to believe that the U.S. sports betting industry finds itself at a crossroads similar to Teddy's. Fanatics aside, the Gold Rush period in sports betting's maturation process has become less golden, as operators turn from showering potential bettors with free credits to figuring out how to acquire customers at a more reasonable price and pivot toward profitability. Meanwhile, with sports betting now legal in over half the country, state regulators — in Ohio and Massachusetts, most notably — are cal...

Binance.US calls off $1.3 billion deal for Voyager's assets - Reuters

Image
April 25 (Reuters) - Binance.US has called off its $1.3 billion deal to buy assets of bankrupt crypto lender Voyager Digital, citing a "hostile and uncertain regulatory climate." In a court filing on Tuesday, lawyers for Voyager said the company reserves all rights with respect to a $10 million good-faith deposit paid by Binance.US to Voyager, as well as a reverse-termination fee owed by Binance.US. "The hostile and uncertain regulatory climate in the United States has introduced an unpredictable operating environment impacting the entire American business community," a spokesperson for Binance.US said in a statement. "We are focused on creating a safe platform where our customers can participate in the digital asset economy." The move adds another hurdle for Voyager, which has been looking to raise funds through an asset sale to repay creditors after it collapsed into bankruptcy last year. The company had initially agreed to sell its assets to major digit...
