A Spanish court is sniffing around Binance, alleging some kind of “misappropriation” – like they stole a whole loaf of bread, not just a crumb. This “JL” dude claims Binance snatched his €67,550 investment and left him high and dry, which is like forgetting to pack your sunscreen on a beach trip. 🌴
A judge named María Ángeles Velázquez, whose name sounds like it could be from a Spanish telenovela, thinks Binance might have done something wrong. Like, really wrong. She gave JL’s lawyers ten days to make their case, which sounds less like a legal battle and more like a game of tag. 🏃♂️💨
Binance: Spain’s New Headache?
Binance, the big kahuna of crypto exchanges, seems to be having a bad day. They’re facing accusations of everything from market manipulation to…well, let’s just say the Spanish courts are not a fan. 🇪🇸
First, the French cops came knocking with questions about money laundering, and now, the Spanish judge wants a chat about this “JL” guy. 👮♀️
“The head of the 27th Court of Instruction of Madrid, María Ángeles Velázquez, explained that there are ‘sufficient criminal motives’ and agreed to end the investigation after having carried out the ‘pertinent’ proceedings,” a local media outlet claimed. Court officials refused to make further comments due to the ongoing nature of the case. 🤔
JL’s beef? Binance allegedly took his €67,550 and then, like a bad boyfriend, vanished. 👻 He tried to get his money back for two years, but Binance was like, “Nope, not happening.” So, he went running to the authorities, which is like, the ultimate “I’m not going to take it anymore” move. 💪
Velázquez is feeling the drama, so now JL and his legal team have to present their evidence. If they can convince the judge that Binance played dirty, then Binance might be in for a real legal showdown. If not, they might just get a slap on the wrist, like “You gotta be better, Binance!” 🤭
This isn’t the only legal headache for Binance. They’re also facing a similar class action lawsuit in the U.S. and a whole pile of other lawsuits around the globe. 🤔 It’s like a giant game of legal whack-a-mole. 🔨
“Many lawyers have clients with this same case. The exchange is blocking €67,000 and no one assists the user. If the ban is lifted, Binance will have a bad time in Spain. By the way, without things like MiCA, this guy would have nothing to do. Regulation is bad until we need it,” wrote Cris Carrascosa, a Spanish lawyer. 👨⚖️
The prosecutor even wanted Binance’s former CEO, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, to testify. But CZ was like, “Nope, I’m busy.” 🙅♂️ Apparently, CZ’s run-ins with Spanish courts are a regular thing. 🤨 Remember that misappropriation suit back in 2022? They settled it out of court, so maybe CZ thought this one would be the same. 💰
All this legal drama is making Binance look like a villain in a Shakespearean tragedy. Poor Binance. But hey, at least they’re trying to rebuild themselves. Binance Labs is now an “independent” research institution, and CZ even joined despite being banned for life from the exchange. Talk about a power move! 🤯
