CZ has 21 days to respond to the summons issued today, though he does not have to do so in person.
On June 5th, Binance and its CEO Changpeng Zhao, were sued by the SEC for allegedly offering unregistered securities, misleading investors, and engaging in wash trading.
DOGE is still the biggest meme coin in the world, with a market cap of over $10.3 billion.
Binance.US is reportedly seeking to reduce CZ's majority stake in hopes it will improve its standing with American regulators.
The rumor that Interpol is looking for Changpeng Zhao caused multiple cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin and BNB to drop sharply.
Friday reports claimed that Binance is preparing to leave the US, but CZ said the rumors are false.
CZ shared a Twitter thread Tuesday aimed at clearing fake narratives related to the FTX collapse and the overall crypto industry.
Binance is allegedly forming a team to help Musk combat Twitter bots using blockchain as CZ celebrates the acquisition.
