Crypto exchange Binance.US announced Monday that it’s delisting one of the crypto assets the US Securities and Exchange Commission identified as a security in a recent insider-trading case.

The Amp token is one of nine digital currencies that the regulator said were securities in a lawsuit last month that accused three individuals, including a former Coinbase Global Inc. employee, of participating in an insider trading scheme. The token currently has a total market value of about $360 million, according to CoinMarketCap.
