Possible scenario
Deferred Settlement Path
42% Chance
The most likely path is another negotiated resolution rather than an existential prosecution, because Binance is already under U.S.-appointed monitors and has strong incentives to cooperate. Prosecutors and OFAC use the February 2026 staff alerts to demand more penalties, more reporting, and a longer compliance monitorship.
