One settlement scenario sees Binance pay the 10-figure fine and be allowed to keep operating in the U.S. in compliance with certain conditions.


An announcement of a potential agreement could come as soon as the end of the month, Bloomberg reported.


If Binance pays up, it will be one of the largest penalties ever paid in a criminal cryptocurrency case.
