A US federal judge dismissed a terrorism lawsuit against Binance and CZ, citing a lack of evidence.

CoinFeed reported on March 7 that, according to Reuters, U.S. Manhattan Federal Judge Jeannette Vargas dismissed a civil lawsuit seeking to hold Binance and its founder CZ accountable for allegedly aiding terrorist organizations in carrying out global attacks. The judge ruled that the 535 plaintiffs (including victims and their families) failed to reasonably demonstrate that the defendants "intentionally colluded with, participated in, or ensured the success of terrorist attacks through their actions." The plaintiffs alleged that the attacks, occurring between 2017 and 2024, were carried out by external terrorist organizations such as Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, ISIS, Hezbollah al-Qaeda, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and al-Qaeda, and attempted to attribute hundreds of millions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency and transactions with Iranian users to Binance and CZ.
