Description: Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume, is reducing the maximum leverage users can use to trade futures contracts. CEO Changpeng Zhao tweeted Monday the new limit is 20 times leverage, down from 100 times, a day after derivatives exchange FTX announced a similar change. Is this part of a broader effort by Binance to help avoid the worst of a future regulatory storm?
