Binance Suspends Employee For Insider Trading

Binance Suspends Employee for Insider Trading
Employee Misconduct: Today, Binance suspended an employee accused of insider trading. Before joining Binance, they worked at BNB Chain and used secret info to buy tokens before a launch. They sold them later for huge profits, breaking rules. This gave them an unfair edge in the crypto market, upsetting fair trading.
Company Response: Binance began a probe on March 23, 2025, after spotting the issue. They also recently suspended a market maker for similar misconduct. "This violates our strict policies," a spokesperson said. They’ll cooperate with law enforcement, pursue legal action, and keep users informed, showing their focus on trust.
Reward for Whistleblowers: Binance awarded $100,000 total to 4 whistleblowers who tipped them off. This shows their push for honesty—each got $25,000. They urge users to report fraud via their website’s secure form. "We value transparency," they said. Readers can submit tips online to protect the crypto community.
