گزارش ها: مدیر عامل بایننس ایالات متحده در بحبوحه نبرد بر سر استقلال از چانگ پنگ ژائو استعفا داد

برایان بروکس یکی از برجسته‌ترین چهره‌های کریپتو است، بنابراین ناگهانی او عزیمت، خروج early this month as the head of Binance’s U.S. operation—a post he held for just three months—set off a wave of speculation about what happened.

اکنون، با انتشار تحقیقات در روز پنجشنبه، تصویر واضح‌تر می‌شود نیویورک و نیویورک تایمز suggest he was ousted by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (who goes by CZ) amid a conflict over how to navigate regulatory controversies and the American subsidiary’s ties to the parent company.

Brooks rose to prominence as Coinbase’s top lawyer and for his crypto-friendly policies while running the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, an independent office within the Treasury Department that oversees banking regulations. He پیوست Binance in early May with the expectation that his experience in Washington, DC, would help confer legitimacy on the company’s U.S. operations as it sought to expand its footprint in the country.

بر اساس این گزارش ها، بروکس به دنبال اجرای یک استراتژی چند جانبه بود که حول محور فاصله انداختن بین بایننس و بایننس ایالات متحده بود – تا حدی با انتصاب اعضای هیئت مدیره مستقل در بایننس ایالات متحده و با جمع آوری 100 میلیون دلار سرمایه برای کمک به واحد آمریکایی برای فعالیت در آن. خود. ظاهراً بخش مهمی از این طرح همچنین شامل انتقال فناوری Binance به سرورهای مستقر در ایالات متحده بود، اما در ماه اوت لغو شد:

“The transfer was the final piece of the puzzle that Brooks believed would put Binance’s regulatory problems in the past. But in the early days of August, as Brooks finalized the plans for the transfer, CZ suddenly pulled the plug …. His strategy rejected, Brooks saw no path forward to resolving the company’s regulatory issues, and therefore, could no longer work there. So he announced his resignation August 6.,” reports نیویورک بر اساس منبعی ناشناس

La نیویورک تایمز has a slightly different version of events, claiming that Brooks and another former regulator hired by Binance resigned after GreatPoint Ventures—which was to have been a keystone of the proposed fundraising plan—became skittish over Binance’s regulatory troubles and pulled out.

La بار adds that GreatPoint’s reluctance came in part because CZ reportedly owns 90% of Binance US. CZ told نیویورک that this is “the wrong narrative” but did not explain why. Brooks did not immediately respond to a request for comment by رمزگشایی کنید در مورد صحت گزارش ها، در حالی که سخنگوی بایننس ایالات متحده از اظهار نظر خودداری کرد.

این گزارش‌ها بر تردیدهای مداوم در مورد اینکه آیا بایننس ایالات متحده واقعاً یک شرکت مستقل است - همانطور که مدت‌ها گفته بود - یا اینکه ژائو در تمام مدت این کار را انجام داده است، تأکید می‌کند.

The controversy over Brooks’s departure come as Binance is reportedly facing an onslaught of investigations from U.S. regulators, including the Justice Department, the IRS, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Meanwhile, there is ongoing scrutiny by U.S. lawmakers over the activities of firms such as TikTok that have ties to China—meaning it’s a safe bet that the pressure on Binance, which is the world’s largest crypto company, is not going to abate.

The episode also raises questions about Brooks’ future in the crypto industry. His resignation from Binance US may serve him well if others view it as an act of integrity and a refusal to bend the law—especially as compliance has become a watchword for U.S. crypto companies. But his brief and stormy tenure at Binance US could also reinforce perspectives of Brooks as a چهره تفرقه انگیز که مستعد ایجاد جناح بندی است.

Brooks taking the top job at Binance US in May resulted in the abrupt ouster of its previous CEO, a popular young female executive named Catherine Coley. Neither Binance nor Brooks offered any public acknowledgement of Coley’s tenure at the time they forced her out.
