A Financial Times investigation, based on leaked internal documents, reveals that Binance continues to host high-risk accounts linked to terror financing, suspicious cross-border logins, and questionable identity verifications, despite pledges to enhance compliance. The report highlights 13 key accounts that traded approximately $1.7 billion over two years, with $144 million transacted after Binance's plea agreement with the U.S. in November 2023. These accounts reportedly engaged in activities such as "pass-through" transactions, large symmetrical inflows and outflows, and rapid cross-continental logins, which should have triggered stricter scrutiny. Binance has responded by asserting its strict compliance measures and zero-tolerance policy, denying any knowledge of facilitating illegal activities.
