Binance and Wazirx dropped USDC, TUSD and USDP following comments from Circle's CEO Jeremy Allaire regarding Binance's decision. Trueusd representatives and Paxos supporters also supported the idea. Wazirx's decision to drop USDC, TUSD and USDP follows reports about a dispute between the exchanges over an alleged acquisition.

The crypto exchange announced seven days ago that India's Enforcement Directorate had taken over the company's bank accounts. India's regulatory watchdog discovered in August that Wazirx's bank accounts had been frozen by the ED authorities.
