Khomiakov is expected to play a pivotal role in enhancing Binance’s industry leadership, refining marketing strategies, and strengthening relationships with governmental and public entities in these markets. Notably, during Khomiakov’s tenure at Binance, the exchange has actively worked on expanding its presence in Ukraine over the past few years. Before this, Khomiakov held positions as the CEO of the State Agency of Infrastructure Projects of Ukraine and as the CEO of a blockchain software development company.

Challenges on the Regulatory and Operational Front for the Exchange

Binance has encountered a series of challenges in recent years, particularly within the United States. The intensified scrutiny following the FTX collapse and regulatory hurdles have had a notable impact on Binance.

Presently, Binance, Binance.US, and CZ (Changpeng Zhao) have jointly petitioned the court to dismiss the lawsuit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The defendants argue that the SEC has exceeded its jurisdiction in attempting to regulate cryptocurrency assets without explicit authorization from the U.S. Congress. They also contend that the SEC’s classification of crypto assets as securities is irrational.
