[Binance demands release of jailed employee Tigran Gambaryan before applying for Nigerian license] Golden Finance reported that Binance will release Tigran Gambaryan as a condition for applying for registration in Nigeria. The exchange is reluctant to register due to outstanding issues with the Nigerian government. It reportedly believes that the framework hastily formulated by the SEC has no legal support. Despite this, Binance is said to be popular with Nigerian users. In an interview with Nairametrics, a Binance spokesperson all but confirmed that the exchange is not on the list of entities that the SEC is currently reviewing for license applications.
