Binance.US Interim CEO Norman Reed has shared his reflections on the platform’s challenges and growth prospects as 2025 approaches, underscoring the evolving role of digital assets in the broader financial landscape. Reed highlighted the resilience of the cryptocurrency sector despite regulatory hurdles in a blog post published last week, emphasizing the long-term potential for digital assets. He stated:

We expect digital assets to become an important part of the ‘mainstream’ financial ecosystem in the U.S. and around the world. The long view is to think of crypto as an ascending staircase where each cycle builds upon the last.

His comments come as Binance.US continues to navigate its legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) following the agency’s 2023 civil claims against the company.

Addressing the SEC’s actions, Reed criticized the regulator’s approach, arguing that it has hindered innovation and harmed the crypto industry. “Ultimately, I strongly believe that the current SEC administration’s actions have not only failed to uphold the agency’s founding principles, but also caused significant harm to American consumers and the crypto industry, including Binance.US,” he said.

Despite these setbacks, Reed expressed confidence in the company’s ability to persevere. “But at the end of the day, I take comfort in knowing these facts: We’ve survived the SEC’s overreach.” He further noted: “Tellingly, the SEC has not presented any evidence of wrongdoing to date despite maintaining a careful watch over the company.”

Looking ahead, Reed conveyed optimism for the platform’s future, pointing to the potential for regulatory improvements under new SEC leadership. He stressed:

In the meantime, we welcome a clear and practical regulatory framework for digital assets in the U.S. I am hopeful that the nomination of Paul Atkins as the next Chairman of the SEC will bring us one step closer to this reality.

“To be clear, the fight isn’t over. Now that we’ve survived, our goal is to help crypto thrive and empower all Americans with freedom of choice. We look forward to writing this next chapter together with our community,” he clarified.
