    Request No. 22-02214-FOIA

    Dear Mr. Reynolds:

    This letter responds to your request, dated and received in


    this office on June 7, 2022, for access to “A subpoena sent to
    Binance Holdings by the SEC with regards to an investigation
    into the BNB token” between January 1, 2022 and June 6, 2022.

    Based on the information you provided in your letter, we


    conducted a thorough search of the SEC’s various systems of
    records, but did not locate or identify any information
    responsive to your request.

    If you still have reason to believe that the SEC maintains


    the type of information you seek, please provide us with
    additional information, which could prompt another search.
    Otherwise, we conclude that no responsive information exists and
    we consider this request to be closed.

    You have the right to appeal the adequacy of our search or


    finding of no responsive information to the SEC’s General Counsel
    under 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(6), 17 CFR § 200.80(f)(1). The appeal
    must be received within ninety (90) calendar days of the date of
    this adverse decision. Your appeal must be in writing, clearly
    marked "Freedom of Information Act Appeal," and should identify
    the requested records. The appeal may include facts and
    authorities you consider appropriate.
