Binance Offers Big Money to Stop Secret Sharing
Binance's $10,000 offer to employees aims to end insider trading and leaks
Binance's co-founder, Yi He, has unveiled a groundbreaking $10,000 reward program for employees who uncover insider trading or unauthorized information leaks. Announced through a series of tweets, this move is Yi He's strategy to confront the growing suspicion of unethical behavior within the cryptocurrency giant, Binance. She forcefully articulates a no-tolerance policy: employees implicated in disclosing confidential information will be terminated after a preliminary warning.
In the wake of unusual trading patterns observed with the Ronin token—believed to be due to premature information leaks—Binance has instituted rigorous safeguards. Any crypto listings affected by leaks are subject to immediate cancellation or postponement, a clear indication of Binance's commitment to preserving the sanctity of market operations. This proactive stance mirrors the broader industry's battle with insider trading, notably paralleled by the scandal that rocked Coinbase, where privileged information was misused for financial gain.
