“Given their hands-on experience of regulatory compliance in various countries, we are excited to work with Binance and other industry players in developing a constructive policy framework for crypto assets in India, helping other exchanges operate in India compliantly and developing a strong framework to foster innovation while managing potential risks.”

Is India heading for a crypto ban or boom?

Based on trading volume, Binance is currently the largest crypto exchange in the world, according to CoinMarketCap. The move from Binance follows on from rumours surfacing late last week that a second wave of efforts to ban cryptocurrency in India might be coming. This led to Finance Magnates looking into whether India might be on the bring of a crypto ban or boom.
