Binance claims its annual compliance expenditure reaches $300 million, intercepting fraud amounts exceeding $10.5 billion
According to FinanceFeeds, Binance stated that its annual compliance expenditure has reached approximately $300 million, and during the period from 2025 to the first quarter of 2026, its internal systems intercepted potential fraud amounts totaling $10.53 billion, protecting over 5.4 million users. Binance currently has nearly 1,500 compliance employees, a scale close to that of large financial institutions. Since 2021, the exchange has recovered over $8.2 billion in user assets and handled 313,653 requests from law enforcement agencies. This disclosure comes at a time when Binance is facing regulatory pressure, with the European MiCA regulations forcing exchanges to obtain authorization or cease operations, and Binance is encountering regulatory resistance from multiple EU countries. Binance claims that compliance has become a core operational function, utilizing AI-driven systems and over 20 AI security tools for transaction monitoring and fraud detection, but the compliance expenditure itself may not be sufficient to meet regulators' comprehensive requirements for governance, risk culture, and sanctions controls.
