In the backdrop of these significant departures, it's worth noting the broader context in the crypto industry. Events like Benzinga's Future of Digital Assets conference on Nov. 14 offer insights into the challenges and opportunities in this rapidly evolving space.

On Wednesday, Cointelegraph confirmed that Binance.US has cut around 100 positions and that Shroder has departed from the company. This decision is intended to offer the cryptocurrency exchange a financial safety net for over seven years as it shifts to being an exclusively crypto-based platform.
