Binance may be the top choice for crypto traders across the world but it appears regulators are getting fed up. On June 27, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (the U.K.'s financial watchdog), banned Binance Markets Ltd., an affiliate of Binance, from operating in the United Kingdom.

Bitcoin’s coherence values appear noticeably less affected by bubble and non-bubble regimes, especially over short and medium terms (2–4, 4–8, 8–16 and 16–32).
