According to CNA, Binance CEO Richard Teng stated that the platform aims to increase its user base to 3 billion by 2030. Binance is accelerating its application for compliance licenses in Asia and partnering with BlockShoals Technologies in the Philippines to enter the local market. Richard Teng stated that the withdrawal of the Greek MiCA license application is a delay in approval, and Binance is still in communication with EU regulatory agencies. At present, about 740 million people worldwide are exposed to cryptocurrency assets, of which about half are Binance users. The platform invests over $300 million annually in compliance, with about a quarter of its employees responsible for compliance, and strengthens user asset protection through reserve proofs and SAFU funds.
