BNB, a native token of the Binance exchange, has seen a massive decline in its market shares following the global regulatory pressure on the trading platform.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Binance began experiencing regulatory troubles on June 5, when the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a lawsuit<\/a> against the exchange on the allegations of fraud and offering of unregistered securities, among others, and this has affected the performance of the cryptocurrency.<\/span><\/p>\n Following the news of the SEC’s charges against Binance, its native cryptocurrency BNB, whose market value is tied to the broader performance of the trading platform, saw its market cap drop by 8%, shedding over $4 billion in a single day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Related Reading: Bitcoin Correlation To Gold, Silver Drops To Cyclical Lows: Glassnode<\/a><\/p>\n Asides from its struggles on US soil, Binance’s operations have also suffered some regulatory setbacks in parts of Europe in the last few weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n On June 17, the exchange announced the shutdown<\/a> of its market in the Netherlands due to the inability to obtain a virtual asset service provider (VASP) from the Dutch authorities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, French authorities commenced an investigation<\/a> into Binance France on the basis of alleged money laundering and illegal canvassing of clients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Belgium became the latest country to join this growing list of disgruntled nations after its Financial Services and Markets Authorities (FSMA) issued an order<\/a> directing Binance to cease its operations in the country immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n Over the last 30 days, all these events have culminated in BNB losing over $12 billion in market shares, representing a staggering 25% decline in the token\u2019s market cap.<\/span><\/p>\n Moreover, the Binance Coin has also seen its market price fall from $316.56 to trade as low as $223.88 during this period.<\/span><\/p>\n Although BNB did experience some resurgence in the general market uptrend that occurred last week, it has proven insignificant in turning around the token\u2019s fortunes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n According to data from CoinMarketCap, the coin is exchanging hands at $234.11, with a 2.25% decline in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, the token market cap now stands at $36 billion, retaining its position as the fourth biggest cryptocurrency in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Following BNB’s recent negative price movements coupled with its status in the crypto space, there are bound to be high levels of speculation on the token’s next movements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n According to price prediction site Coincodex<\/a>, investors’ sentiments surrounding BNB remain bearish, reflecting the present concerns over the token\u2019s fate amidst Binance growing regulatory troubles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nBNB Loses $10 Billion In Market Cap<\/span><\/h2>\n
