Morbi pretium leo et nisl aliquam mollis. Quisque arcu lorem, ultricies quis pellentesque nec, ullamcorper eu odio.

Crypto exchange Binance and its CEO Changpeng Zhao are making headlines once again as news of the company’s acquisition moves hit the industry.

According to recent news, Binance acquired a 41% stake on Korean crypto exchange Gopax. The deal was originally scheduled to be revealed last year, and it involved Binance buying the stock holding from Lee Jun-hang, Gopax’s top stakeholder.

BNB, Binance’s native token, took the news to heart with a weekly gain of 5.5%. As of this writing, BNB is trading at $255, data from Coingecko shows.

Binance And South Korea, A Mixed History

This has not been the first time Binance entered a business venture in Korea. In the period of 2020 to 2021, Binance KR trading pairs and a hard shutdown of the service in the country was completed. This was due to tight crypto regulation in the country. 

Gopax was hit hard after FTX collapsed. During this time, the exchange experienced a liquidity problem forcing the Korean exchange to suspend payments.

With the onset of Binance capital flowing into the exchange, we can expect Gopax to rebound from last year’s disaster.

Binance, on the other hand, promised to comply with local regulation as they partnered with the port city of Busan in August of last year. This partnership will develop the city’s blockchain infrastructure for its future city-backed digital asset exchange. 

What Does This Mean To BNB?

With almost no barrier now, this development should push through in the coming weeks as the acquisition is being finalized. With this in mind, Binance’s presence in South Korea would further cement the company as a major player in the centralized exchange market. 

However, one can’t be too sure of the future. Nearly a month ago, a Reddit post regarding Binance’s supposed audit exposed a concerning development.

According to a post, the “audit” was not actually an audit but only an Agreed-Upon-Procedure (AUP) which does not guarantee the truth of its proof-of-reserves.

Not to mention that right now, the company is under fire from the SEC as it aggressively tries to acquire Voyager Digital. Whether this acquisition pushes through or not, BNB bulls are poised to breach the $281 price resistance level. 

However, with the token being highly correlated with Ethereum, we might see BNB drop if macroeconomic indicators reveal a worsening situation. For now, investors and traders of BNB should consolidate their gains at $252. 

If ever the bears claw back their spot in the market, BNB can fall back to $240 for a reliable support range. With the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data being rolled out next week, investors and traders should be prepared to deal with volatility as any movement in ETH will determine whether BNB will go up or down.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Read more

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
