Binance reports expanded compliance operations as scrutiny of global crypto exchanges intensifies.
Binance says it processed over 71,000 law-enforcement requests globally in 2025, supporting the confiscation of more than $131 million in illicit assets. The exchange added that it conducted over 160 training sessions for authorities tackling crypto-related crime.
As of early 2026, Binance reports 593 full-time compliance staff, with nearly 1,500 personnel across compliance and risk functions. The company states these teams operate independently from commercial units.
In Africa, Binance collaborated in an INTERPOL-led operation that resulted in 1,209 arrests, dismantled over 11,000 malicious infrastructures, and recovered $97.4 million. Through the Cybercrime Atlas Initiative, it also contributed intelligence to investigations, including a $300 million scam case in Zambia.
Despite past compliance criticisms, Binance maintains it has strengthened sanctions screening, transaction monitoring and risk controls.
