ChainCatcher news, the Dutch court ruled that the Dutch Central Bank (DNB) exceeded its legal authority by charging anti-money laundering registration fees to crypto companies like Coinmerce, stating that "the way DNB assesses registration requests violates the scope of registration obligations for cryptocurrency service providers as stipulated in the EU anti-money laundering law, and it is not legally possible to charge regulatory fees for the year 2021 to crypto service providers under the current cryptocurrency regulations." This ruling does not affect the fees for 2020, and a separate legal case regarding the fees for 2022 is still ongoing.

Previous report, Binance's Dutch customers signed an agreement with the Dutch cryptocurrency platform Coinmerce, allowing users to automatically transfer cryptocurrencies to their Coinmerce accounts with one click before August 17.
