US regulators have cut MEXC Global off from the US financial system over $16 billion in illicit transactions linked to sanctions evasion and cybercrime. Separately, Gnosis Pay confirmed a data breach affecting card customers, and the Ethereum Foundation delayed a network upgrade due to gas fee concerns.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 8 sources have reported it between 7 Nov 2026 and 13 Nov 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

US financial channels have shut for MEXC Global, forcing you to rethink access to dollar payment rails if your crypto exchange relies on US banks. Data security failures like Gnosis Pay's breach stiffen payment trust requirements, demanding urgent upgrades to avoid similar hits.
