NatGold Digital Pulls NATG Token From MEXC After US Treasury Action
NatGold Digital has requested the immediate delisting of its NATG token from crypto exchange MEXC following a US Treasury Department decision.
NatGold Digital Ltd. announced Friday it has formally requested the removal of its NatGold Token, ticker NATG, from MEXC, a global cryptocurrency exchange where the token had been listed, citing a decision by the US Treasury Department as the driving force behind the move.
The Coral Gables, Florida-based company said the withdrawal is effective immediately, signaling a swift compliance response to what appears to be regulatory pressure from federal authorities. The nature of the Treasury's specific determination was not disclosed in full detail, but the company characterized the delisting request as a direct consequence of that ruling.
