Binance.US has been given the go-ahead by the US federal government to purchase the remaining assets of bankrupt crypto lender Voyager Digital. The deal, which values Voyager at $1bn, was originally halted by the government on the grounds that it might violate laws on the unregistered offer and sale of securities. Binance.US has said the American branch is fully compliant with US securities regulations. The deal is now expected to move forward after the court approves a joint stipulation filed by the parties. The greenlight came after FTX’s bid for the same assets fell through when the exchange collapsed last year. Last month, Binance and its CEO were sued by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission over allegations of knowingly offering unregistered crypto derivative products to traders based in the US.
