TL;DR Summary

Binance.US has suspended U.S. dollar deposits and its banking partners are preparing to pause fiat dollar withdrawal channels as early as June 13, just days after U.S. regulators sued Binance and its CEO Changpeng Zhao. The move comes as the exchange takes "proactive steps" in its transition to a crypto-only exchange for the time being.
