— Binance.US also hired a former House Financial Services aide and a former House chief of staff from Ice Miller Strategies to lobby on its behalf, according to disclosures filed last week. Though the company has not previously hired lobbyists in Washington, last August it joined the Blockchain Association, an industry lobbying group that was a vocal player in negotiations over cryptocurrency tax provisions in the bipartisan infrastructure bill and that has spent nearly $300,000 on lobbying in the first half of 2021.
Binance.US launched in September 2019 in order to serve customers from the U.S.A. Although the exchange got off to a fairly slow start, Binance.US has grown into one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the United States. In fact, April was a milestone month as Binance.US announced that its total trading volume surpassed $28 billion.

At each point information from neighbouring data is used. As the time series considered are finite, the areas at the start and end of the data (especially at higher period bands) will not have all the data required. One solution to make computation possible, chosen here, is to pad the time series with zeros where required. However, the zero padding will impact the reliability of the results. It is standard to use a cone of influence to represent this difference in reliability of results. Pale colours represent those areas outside the cone of influence with less reliable results (as seen on Fig 3). Higher period bands require more data for computation resulting in the cone shape.
An Instagram ad by the influencer was criticised in a speech by FCA chairman Charles Randell.
