"What's wrong with Israel, it can ask for help, Hamas can't either."
Cryptocurrency giant Binance reportedly froze accounts linked to Hamas shortly after receiving a request from Israeli law enforcement.
According to Yi He, the co-founder of Binance said that the freeze was aimed at Hamas and not the Palestinians.
In addition to talking about Palestine having an organized government while Hamas is a local militant group, Yi He also stated that no trading platform can refuse the request by the Zionists.
Yesterday on October 10, 2023, Israeli officials froze the Hamas crypto account with the help of Binance and law enforcement alleges that Hamas is using the account to raise funds for the war through social media.
But the day before, the local Web3 community in Israel launched a charity campaign to help Israeli civilians affected by the ongoing conflict.
Called “Crypto Aid Israel”, the initiative has supported donations in Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) or other ERC-20 tokens such as Tether (USDT), so here it can be seen that it has received $50,000 in digital assets.
Turning to the co-founder of Binance, he once again emphasized that ordinary users including Palestinian civilians will not be affected by the ban because they did not freeze the accounts of Russian citizens during the war with Ukraine.
