Hamas's military wing advises donors to bypass Binance and switch to platforms such as Bybit and OKX.
According to CoinDesk, recently released asset forfeiture documents from the U.S. Department of Justice reveal that the Hamas military group Al-Qassam Brigades advised donors in an internal letter to avoid using Binance for fund transfers, instead recommending platforms such as Bybit, OKX, Kast, and Redotpay, and suggesting USDT transfers via the Tron network's TRC-20 chain. In response, Binance Chief Compliance Officer Noah Perlman stated, "When a terrorist organization tells people to avoid Binance, it shows our controls are working." OKX replied that the wallet addresses in question are not associated with its platform and have already been flagged by its internal risk control system as suspected non-compliant addresses, meaning any transfer attempts to those addresses will be intercepted.
