The Eleventh Circuit issued an extraordinary writ of mandamus on August 19, directing the lower court to vacate its arbitration order. The panel found that the eight alleged crypto theft victims had never opened Binance accounts and therefore were not bound by Binance’s Terms of Use. That is an important procedural ruling. It does not mean Binance has been found liable. It does not prove RICO or anti-money-laundering allegations. It only determines that…
