Can India’s Crypto Exchanges Survive the Ongoing Crypto Winter?
October 18, 2022

WazirX VP Rajagopal Menon told BSC News his company is building through the crypto winter, which has been especially harsh for India's crypto exchanges.
WazirX VP Compares 2022 Crypto Bear Market to 2018
India’s crypto exchanges have been going through hard times in the past year. However, an executive at one of the country’s largest exchanges told BSC News that his company is focusing on building through the bear market.
“This situation is similar to the trying times the industry faced in 2018 when the [Reserve Bank of India] banned crypto; then, we doubled down and built our innovative P2P engine. We will continue to focus on our customer needs and continue to build,” said WazirX Vice President Rajagopal Menon.
While the current global economic slowdown is impacting all financial markets, India’s crypto industry faces unique problems with respect to taxes, regulations and banking access. Those have contributed to the significant fall in trading volumes on all Indian crypto exchanges.
The pain is expected to worsen with the country’s new 1% TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) regime.
Menon remained optimistic and focused on building.
“ We are still at a nascent stage in the crypto ecosystem, especially in terms of awareness. We are launching a slew of initiatives on the education front apart from making incremental improvements in the site and apps,” he said.
What Is WazirX:
WazirX is one of the largest and most well-established cryptocurrency exchanges in India. Launched in 2018, WazirX has about 15 million registered users and had an annual trading volume of $43 billion in 2021.
Where to find WazirX:

Binance VIP Traders Informed of $4B Settlement Back in September
.jpg)
December 1, 2023
The exclusive gathering took place at a luxurious Singapore night club in September, where attendees engaged with Binance executives and probed about the potential settlement.
Binance reportedly hosted an exclusive dinner for its most significant market makers in September. The gathering, held at a prestigious Singapore nightclub, was an intimate setting where select VIP traders gained insights into the impending $4 billion settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice, according to a recent report from Bloomberg.
The private dinner, organized for Binance's top traders, unfolded in the upscale 1880 members-only club. Attendees, consisting of market makers and traders, engaged in discussions with Binance executives about the company's legal challenges. The conversations revolved around the potential $4 billion fine, leaving attendees convinced that Binance could afford and would settle such a substantial amount.
Attendees' Perspectives
Reports suggest that attendees, after breaking into smaller groups, sought clarification on Binance's legal troubles. They left the dinner with a heightened expectation of the $4 billion settlement, emphasizing the significant financial impact it would have on the exchange.
Former CEO Changpeng Zhao was notably absent from the gathering, with the then-head of regional markets, Richard Teng, representing the company.
In response to the reports, a Binance spokesperson disputed certain aspects of the event's depiction while refraining from specifying the inaccuracies, as per The Block. This discrepancy in accounts raises questions about the transparency surrounding Binance's legal challenges and its communication with stakeholders.
Implications of the Settlement
Binance’s $4 billion settlement with U.S. authorities, including the Department of Justice, Department of the Treasury, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, marked one of the largest corporate settlements in U.S. history.
The resolution concluded a criminal investigation into allegations of money laundering and sanctions violations, settling many of Binance's legal troubles in the U.S. However, Binance.US and Changpeng Zhao still face a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
