Exchange news.
Australian big four bank Westpac banned customers from transferring funds to Binance, claiming the move would reduce losses from scams, The Guardian reported. The bank said it was blocking a number of crypto exchanges as part of a trial, and though it did not name Binance, it is understood the exchange has been hit with the ban, the report said. Westpac’s group executive of customer services and technology, Scott Collary, said: "Digital exchanges have a legitimate role to play in the financial ecosystem. But since the rise of digital currency, we’ve noticed that scammers are increasingly using overseas exchanges. Often our customers only discover they’ve been scammed after the money has left the country, making recovery extremely difficult."Binance Australia halted Australian dollar deposits, citing issues with its third-party payment service provider. "We regret to inform you that with immediate effect we are unable to facilitate PayID AUD deposits for Binance users due to a decision made by our third-party payment service provider," the exchange tweeted. The team said that they confirmed with the local payment partner that users can continue to withdraw AUD and that they would update users with any further changes on timing as they know more. Users are still able to buy and sell via debit and credit card, they added.Binance announced its spot trading integration with charting and analytics platform TradingView, following the integration for the exchange's derivatives product offering. Users can now deploy more trading strategies to trade on Binance.com through TradingView and analyze their performance with a range of charting and analysis tools, said the press release.

Hong Kong launched the trial run for a digital version of the local currency, the e-HKD, the South China Morning Post reported. Some 16 banks and payment companies – including the three note-issuing banks HSBC, Standard Chartered, and BOCHK – will select small groups of their clients to test six potential uses for the e-HKD: online payments, payments in shops and restaurants, collecting government payouts, tokenized deposits, tokenized asset settlement, and Web3 trading and clearing, according to a statement by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA).
