A Crypto Trading Clampdown Expands Beyond Binance to Another Large Exchange
Cryptocurrency exchanges are cracking down on brokerages that bundle clients' orders to enjoy lower, VIP trading fees. In a letter reviewed by CoinDesk, OKX, the second-largest exchange by volume, recently asked prime brokers for details of subaccounts including the names of the entities or individuals that control each subaccount and the jurisdiction in which they are located.

Earlier this month, OKX's larger rival Binance changed its Link Plus interface, effectively closing a loophole that let prime brokers use a multitiered fee system to offer rebates to clients. Binance said the measure was "to uphold compliance and ensure a level-playing field for all users, whether they access Binance directly or via an intermediary." That news was first reported by Bloomberg.
