Binance’s settlement with the US government is good for both the crypto industry and Binance, JPMorgan said in a research report on November 23.

For the industry as a whole, the settlement “results in a significant reduction in the potential systemic risks arising from Binance’s failure,” the report said. Analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou also said the move reinforces “the continued transition to regulated crypto-asset entities and financial products that has been a goal of U.S. authorities following the collapse of FTX.” It is written that.

This shift to regulated crypto-asset companies and products is a positive change, the report says, as it helps attract investors from traditional finance, adding that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) It added that the involvement of major asset managers such as BlackRock and Fidelity in approving spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) supports this claim.
