According to data from the Bloomberg Terminal, Binance Holdings will no longer be providing services on trading crypto futures contracts and derivatives in Europe.

As for users in Germany, Italy and the Netherlands, they will be prevented from opening new accounts for crypto futures and derivatives products immediately.

At the moment, Binance is seeking to pass additional regulatory probes and checks to become a full-scale official financial institution. CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is even ready to step down from his high-ranking position if his company manages to find a better candidate with regulatory experience.
