Binance Holdings Ltd. won dismissal from a lawsuit brought by a Texas woman who said she was swindled out of $8 million as part of a crypto fraud orchestrated by a man she met on Tinder.

The woman, Divya Gadasalli, failed to point to a “single fact of how Binance is actually involved in this case” to show the court has jurisdiction over the crypto exchange, US District Judge Amos Mazzant ruled Monday.
