Binance.US

Binance.US is a cryptocurrency exchange launched in 2019 to serve U.S. customers, operating independently from its global counterpart, Binance, to comply with U.S. regulations. Headquartered in San Francisco, the platform offers trading for over 150 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Binance Coin (BNB). It provides services such as spot trading and staking, emphasizing low trading fees and regulatory compliance. In April 2022, Binance.US raised $200 million in a seed funding round, valuing the company at $4.5 billion. The exchange has faced regulatory challenges, including a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in June 2023, alleging violations of securities laws. Despite these challenges, Binance.US continues to operate, focusing on providing a compliant and secure platform for U.S. cryptocurrency traders.
