BinanceUS is struggling badly as the trade volume plunged amid a battle with two top American financial regulators.
BinanceUS is an American subsidiary of the Binance crypto exchange. In Q3 2019, the BinanceUS exchange was launched in America.

It is worth it to note that here BinanceUS is not alone, Coinbase, another top American crypto exchange also is in legal conflict with the US SEC but the Coinbase team decided not to delist crypto assets from the platform.
