Key Points:

• Binance sold its Russian operations to CommEX due to regulatory issues.
• The transition for Russian users will take a year, with asset protection guaranteed.
• Binance exits Russia with no ongoing ties.

In a strategic move aligned with its compliance strategy, Binance, a global cryptocurrency exchange, has entered into an agreement to sell its entire business operations in Russia to CommEX. This decision comes amid ongoing regulatory challenges and sanctions in the Russian market.

Binance Exits Russia: Sells Business to CommEX

To ensure a seamless transition for its existing Russian user base, Binance will conduct an off-boarding process over the course of the next year. The exchange has emphasized that all assets held by Russian users are secure and protected throughout this period.

Over the next few months, Binance will gradually phase out all exchange services and business operations in Russia. The exchange intends to prioritize a smooth and user-friendly experience for its customers during this transition.

Binance Assures Asset Safety for Russian Users

The transition will involve an orderly migration process for users, with Binance and CommEX collaborating to guide users on how to transfer their assets to CommEX. Additionally, a portion of Russian KYC’d new user registrations will be redirected to CommEX, gradually scaling up over time.

While the financial terms of the deal remain undisclosed, it’s noteworthy that Binance exits Russia with no ongoing revenue share from the sale, and it will not retain any option to repurchase shares in the business.

This development follows the departure of two key executives previously associated with Binance’s operations in the Russian market, reflecting the company’s strategic adjustments in response to evolving regulatory dynamics. Binance exits Russia; this is something that has also been speculated about before.
