Binance Holdings Ltd was fined C$6 million ($4.4 million) by Canada’s financial watchdog for breaching money-laundering protections.

The world’s largest crypto exchange received the financial penalty on Tuesday from Canada’s FINTRAC agency for failing to register as a foreign money services business and failing to report virtual currency transactions exceeding C$10,000, the regulatory body said on Thursday.

Binance ceased operations in Canada last year, saying the country’s guidance on stablecoins and investor limits made the market untenable.

BlockFi will shut down this month, with Coinbase acting as a partner to support its customers' cryptocurrency withdrawals.

Crypto-eligible clients who did not withdraw their digital assets distribution from the BlockFi platform by the deadline of April 28, 2024 at 23:59 UTC (or did not complete an identity verification request by the deadline of May 10, 2024 at 11:59 UTC) from the current round of estate distributions will, rather than such assets being liquidated to cash, have funds made available in kind and can withdraw if they create or have an open and approved Coinbase account.

Additionally, the BlockFi web platform will shut down during May 2024. The specific date remains under consideration given ongoing work and initial distribution, but after this date clients will no longer be able to access the BlockFi platform. The specific date will be separately communicated over the next few weeks.
