Binance Labs, the investment arm of the world’s largest<a href="https://coingape.com/blog/binance-exchange-review/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> crypto exchange Binance</a>, has become an independent entity and severed some ties with parent crypto exchange Binance, as per a recent report by Bloomberg. 
<h2 id="crypto-exchange-binance-separates-binance-labs">Crypto Exchange Binance Separates Binance Labs</h2> 
Crypto exchange&nbsp;Binance made one of the notable developments in the crypto market amid the heightened regulatory scrutiny and the ongoing lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Binance silently spin-off its $10 billion venture capital arm Binance Labs earlier this year, <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-15/crypto-exchange-binance-spins-off-binance-labs-venture-capital-unit" target="_blank">reported</a> Bloomberg on March 15. 
After <a href="https://coingape.com/breaking-binance-ceo-resigns-as-part-of-doj-settlement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Changpeng “CZ” Zhao</a> stepped down as Binance CEO last year, it’s one of significant development in new chief executive officer Richard Teng’s four-month-old tenure. 
“Binance Labs is an independent venture and not part of the Binance Group, nor is it involved in any of the businesses operated by the Binance Group (including but not limited to the Binance cryptocurrency exchange). Binance Labs is licensed by Binance to use its trademark but otherwise have no other relationship with the Binance Group,” as per new terms of use. 
In addition, Binance Labs has also severed some ties with the Binance group, according to a Binance Labs spokesperson. Moreover, employees of Binance Labs now have separate contracts and systems as compared to Binance crypto exchange staff, the spokesperson added. This new move is quite similar to the Binance-backed blockchain BNB Chain. 
Binance Labs Investment Director Alex said: 
“Our primary goal is to identify projects and invest in them and this has not changed. It’s been our focus for the most part since the inception of Binance Labs, which we started as a team in 2018.”

<h2 data-component="paragraph" id="binance-argues-with-sec-on-dismissal-of-lawsuit">Binance Argues With SEC on Dismissal of Lawsuit</h2> 
The SEC lawsuit sees no sign of dispute resolution over the motion by Binance, Binance.US, and CZ to dismiss the lawsuit. The SEC currently filing supplemental authority of different lawsuits including a <a href="https://coingape.com/binance-vs-sec-can-binance-class-action-open-door-for-summary-judgment/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">class action against Binance</a> to gain upper hand the lawsuit and seek court order on rejecting the dismissal of the lawsuit. 
Meanwhile, the Court will not consider <a href="https://coingape.com/court-deals-major-blow-to-us-sec-on-supplemental-authority-in-crypto-case/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">supplemental authority</a> for discussion or describe the authority for parties’ arguments, Judge Amy Berman Jackson recently ordered.
