Binance.US is struggling with a loss of trust, severe revenue declines, and layoffs following the SEC's attempt to freeze its operations via a Temporary Restraining Order. Binance.US executive Christopher Blodgett disclosed in a recent court deposition that the TRO resulted in a $1 billion asset withdrawal and a 75% revenue drop. Following these challenges, the company laid off two-thirds of its workforce and experienced heightened legal and auditing costs and the loss of banking relationships.
