Binance will not pursue the deal for its smaller rival citing reports of 'mishandled customer funds'.
Binance, one of the world's biggest cryptocurrency exchanges, has walked away from a bailout deal for its smaller rival FTX.It said reports of "mishandled customer funds and alleged US agency investigations" had swayed its decision.Concerns about FTX's financial health reportedly triggered $6bn of withdrawals in just three days.
The Reuters news agency reported on Wednesday that the US Securities and Exchange Commission was investigating FTX's handling of customer funds and its crypto-lending activities. The markets regulator was examining whether the platform had followed securities laws about keeping customer assets separate and whether it had traded against customers.
