Crypto News: US Congress To Act Soon As Banks Isolate Binance?
Crypto News: With the recent regulatory actions, the U.S. is currently facing heavy criticism of the way it is handling crypto industry. While industry insiders feel the US faces danger of losing a chance to be home for a new financial hub with crypto assets, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently placed restrictions on crypto staking service offered by Kraken. This move was seen as the US regulators’ view to pose a warning to the crypto market. Also, crypto exchanges like Binance are having a tough time to find a banking partner in the US, owing to a hostile environment.

Binance Banking Issue To Be Heard In US Congress?
In an apparent indication of Binance’s pursuit of a US banking partner, Senator Bill Hagerty from Tennessee, raised his voice on the matter.

Terming the ongoing spree of aggressive actions against the crypto space by US regulators as Operation Chokepoint 2.0, the senator indicated the matter would soon be raised in the Congress. Senator Bill Hagerty’s statement further said,
“Make no mistake, this Operation Chokepoint 2.0 is an extreme overreach from the banking regulators, and they should expect to hear from Congress soon.”
