Founded in 2017, Binance is now the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange when one considers trading volume. Indeed, Binance’s trading volume is more than three times larger than its nearest crypto exchange competitor Coinbase Exchange.

In 2019, Binance stated that it was “unable to provide services to any U.S. person" and that it would partner with a U.S. company called Binance.US. US-based investors trying to access the Binance.com website are now provided the following warning: “Binance is unable to provide services to U.S. users. Binance.US (BAM Trading Services) is a US-regulated cryptocurrency trading platform.”

Binance.US is an online service that offers US-based investors the opportunity to buy, sell, and store cryptocurrencies. In just three years, Binance.US has already become the tenth largest cryptocurrency exchange when one considers trading volume.
