Binance reduced Iran-related transactions by 97% since 2024, denies firing investigators over sanctions, and says 25% of staff focus on compliance despite whistleblower allegations of $1.7B in illicit activity.
Binance says it has cut sanctions-related exposure by 97% since early 2024, now at 0.009% of volume, and denies firing investigators over Iran sanctions violations, attributing staff departures to data policy breaches.
The exchange claims over 97% reduction in direct ties to Iranian exchanges, from $4.19 million to $110,000, and says 25% of its workforce focuses on compliance.
Despite this, internal whistleblower reports allege $1.7 billion in transactions to Iranian-linked entities and groups like the Houthi, with disciplinary actions taken against staff.
The claims come amid scrutiny over Binance’s compliance, its founder’s pardon by Donald Trump, and ties to the Trump family’s crypto venture, though the U.S. government has not commented.
