New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has sent letters to 13 virtual currency exchanges requesting they disclose key information about their operations, usage of bots, benefit conflicts, theft and other issues. Those Exchange received the letter are GDAX, Gemini, BitFlyer, Binance, itBit, Gate.io, Huobi.Pro, Bitfinex, Bitstamp, Bittrex, Kraken, Tidex and Poloniex (Which acquired by Circle recently).
