by

So, the SEC and Binance decided to take a little breather, huh? Like, a 60-day timeout from their legal slugfest. I guess even crypto giants need a nap sometimes. 🛌

Now, everyone’s scratching their heads, wondering what this means for the crypto world. Eleanor says they’ll issue a joint report at the end of the timeout. You know, to see if they want to keep napping. 📊
