Cryptocurrency exchange Binance may be considering withdrawing its services from Russia amid sanctions from countries including the United States.
According to an Aug. 28 report from The Wall Street Journal, a Binance spokesperson said the exchange was considering all options in regard to Russia, “including a full exit.” The report followed Binance removing certain sanctioned Russian financial institutions from available payment options on its peer-to-peer platform and adding fiat currency restrictions for Russia-based users.
