Binance App Disappears from Google Play in Select EU Countries Amid Compliance Concerns
The Binance app has become unavailable on Google Play in certain European Union countries due to questions over its compliance with the bloc's crypto licensing framework.
A user in Spain confirmed that the Binance app was no longer visible in Google Play searches, but it remained available through Oppo's App Market, an Android app store used on Oppo devices.
In contrast, checks in Poland showed the Binance app remained available on Google Play, indicating the issue does not affect all EU markets.
The reports of Binance's Android app disappearing from Google Play in Europe surfaced last week, when OKX Europe CEO Erald Ghoos claimed that the app had been removed due to Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) licensing requirements.
