Binance Responds to EU License Controversy: Still Committed to Obtaining Operational Qualification Under the MiCA Framework

Odaily Odaily reports that Binance has responded to news regarding its EU license on the X platform, stating that the company remains committed to serving European users and will continue to conduct business in accordance with applicable laws.

Binance stated that as the MiCA transition period draws to a close, the company is adopting a prudent, user-first strategy to minimize the impact of business adjustments. It will disclose further arrangements and available options to users once more information is obtained, with plans to release an update before June 30, 2026.

Additionally, Binance noted that over the past 18 months, it has maintained constructive communication with regulators and actively participated in the MiCA approval process. According to its understanding, the Greek regulatory authority has completed its review of the relevant application and deems it compliant with MiCA requirements. The application has also been reviewed at the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) level.

Binance also indicated that any delays or deviations in the MiCA authorization process could weaken market liquidity, competition, and user choice, potentially pushing some activities outside the EU. The company will continue to seek compliant operational paths under the MiCA framework and keep users informed of progress.
