The global crypto industry, already under pressure from increasingly strict regulations, is once again shaken. Indeed, French authorities have just opened a judicial investigation targeting Binance, the world leader in crypto exchange platforms. This procedure, which is based on serious accusations such as money laundering, tax fraud, and drug trafficking, highlights the growing tensions between regulators and players in a sector still seeking clear legal frameworks. While Binance denies these allegations, this case could tarnish the platform's image, but also redefine the rules of the game for the entire industry.
