Binance USD (BUSD) fell out of the top five stablecoins due to a 96% drop in its circulating supply, triggered by regulatory troubles and a lack of user confidence.
Legal issues, including a $150 million fine on Binance’s CEO, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), and regulatory challenges, have affected Binance’s market response, while the stability of BUSD remains uncertain.
Binance USD’s recent troubles began when its circulating supply dipped below 1 billion tokens, marking its lowest point since December 2020.
