The reason why I don’t see them releasing the names is because it will look like a breach go right to their customers and they might lose there customers to that, not only In Nigeria but around the world. Many of their customers might see them as push overs by the government and any country can use it against them and we all know even though people submitted KYC they will still want it not to get to their government
Exactly. But people should expect something like this if they go for KYC. KYC can be extremely dangerous.
yes but under legal tender may be they might be able to get this, since they did the same to sinbad
but one thing for sure no business bodies who may have issues with Nigeria government will ever send their executives to Nigeria, it will be rare and I don't think binance will do the same in most countries especially those being in the same category as Nigeria with little or no world power.
I guessed the government knows that in keeping those executives detained is the only way binance may listen to them after acting stupidly in detaining them at first because now once those executives are released Binance will officially cut ties with Nigeria because of the fg request of the list of customers.
The thing is binance wouldn’t comply but rather look for ways to reduce the damage that is by paying some fine that the government will ask of but definitely not the $10B. Other government like the US had in the past accused them of money laundering and CZ then took the hit of stepping down from his role and both him and the entity were fined and that’s it.
We do not know what will happen. As some people and organizations are seeking for United States intervention, it is possible that our government may still demand for lists of Nigeria Binance users. If the US government also agree to that, Binance will not have any other option if their officials are not released from detention.
I guessed the main issue why Binance is not releasing the list is because of the $10B scam which I think the Nigeria government is after base on this
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php, I believe Binance has given them names of criminals before and so won't have see any issues doing the same under legal means except from the fine.
Also I think the US might not support Binance after their past record and even current court cases with them
