ใBinance lodges a furious complaint against RedotPay, seeking $470 million in damages!ใ
According to Bloomberg, Binance-related entities have officially filed a lawsuit in Hong Kong against the crypto payment company RedotPay. The claim accuses its co-founders of violating an agreement, secretly diverting more than 470,000 โBinance Cardโ users to its own platform.
Key points:
โ The damages amount is as high as $472.8 million, with over 470,000 diverted users
โก Binance alleges that RedotPay misappropriated about $304 million of Binance Pay usersโ funds to top up cards, and failed to segregate funds
โข The partnership began in March 2026; after the issues surfaced, the two sides completely fell out
โฃ RedotPay responded that it will actively defend itself and emphasized that it does not affect day-to-day operations
โค In addition to the Hong Kong lawsuit, Binance has also filed a lawsuit in Singapore against RedotPayโs related parties, and a hearing was held this Friday
Whatโs especially intriguing is that RedotPay has previously been seeking to advance an IPO at an estimated valuation of around $4 billion. The operating data it disclosed looked quite impressiveโannualized payment volume of $14 billion, annualized revenue of $180 million, and users exceeding 8 million. Just as a unicorn appears ready to be born, itโs been dragged into the mud by a lawsuit filed by a former partner.
This case also serves as another reminder to the industry: in partnerships, questions like who owns user data, whether funds are segregated, and where compliance boundaries lieโif they arenโt clearly spelled out in the agreement, disputes can quickly escalate to stakes worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
What do you think of the showdown between Binance and RedotPay? Is the evidence solid for diversion violations, or did the parties simply fail to agree on how to share interests?
