TRADE SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM
Under the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) and Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (“CFTC”), Binance.US is subject to the Core Principles of the CEA and

Binance.US Trade Surveillance Program is responsible for trade surveillance to detect

capacity to prevent disruptions. Binance.US Trade Surveillance Staff (“Staff”) ensures
that the Exchange responds appropriately to the fundamentals of underlying
cryptocurrency markets.
