FinCEN Seeks to Cut MEXC Global Off Over Alleged $16 Billion in Transactions

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) is seeking to cut MEXC Global off from the U.S. financial system, alleging the exchange was involved in at least $16 billion in transactions. FinCEN’s allegation concerns transactions involving MEXC, and the agency puts their value at no less than $16 billion. The action it is seeking targets the exchange’s access to U.S. financial channels. The transaction total describes the activity at issue; the requested cutoff concerns MEXC’s financial access. MEXC is reviewing the order and said it would take the allegations seriously. That is the exchange’s stated response as FinCEN seeks to restrict its connection to the U.S. financial system. The cutoff is being sought, not described as completed.
