Binance successfully dismissed a terrorism lawsuit after the court found no evidence of funding terrorist activities. Despite the legal victory, BNB remains in a short-term downtrend, with a key technical resistance level at $650, and the market is watching for a potential rebound.
The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York recently dismissed all Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) claims against Binance. The lawsuit, initiated by 535 plaintiffs, alleged that Binance aided or abetted 64 terrorist attacks between 2017 and 2024. The court found that the plaintiffs failed to provide sufficient evidence linking Binance to terrorist organizations through funding or joint planning.
Binance's Chief Legal Officer, Eleanor Hughes, stated that the ruling completely refutes the false accusations against the platform, with the court explicitly rejecting the so-called 'false narrative.' Although the plaintiffs have 60 days to file an amended complaint, Binance maintains that no amendment can remedy the fundamental flaws in the existing allegations. The company emphasized its commitment to cooperating with global regulators and strengthening its compliance system.
This ruling comes after Binance previously paid a $4.3 billion settlement for sanctions and anti-money laundering violations, but the two are separate legal events. Binance also responded to Senator Richard Blumenthal's inquiry, clarifying that the platform strictly prohibits Iranian users from accessing its services and that it only discovered the relevant accounts through law enforcement notifications, after which it immediately completed their cancellation.
Binance founder CZ noted on social media that false information will eventually dissipate, and truth takes time to verify. Compliance Officer Teresa Goody Guillén also confirmed that the court had fully dismissed all charges, with the plaintiffs failing to establish a direct link between Binance or CZ and terrorist financing.
Despite the legal progress, the short-term price of BNB remains under pressure. The daily chart shows that the price has broken through several key support levels after falling from the $880 to $900 range. The price is currently trading below the 20-day simple moving average (approximately $621), with the upper Bollinger Band at $653 providing short-term resistance and the lower band at $588 offering support. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is around 41, still below the neutral level, indicating that while selling pressure has eased, buying momentum has not yet recovered.
Traders are closely watching whether the $650 to $700 range can become a reversal breakout point. If the $588 support is broken, the price may test $560 or even further test the $520 to $500 range; conversely, if it strongly breaks through $650, it is expected to open an upward channel towards $720 to $750.
