On June 27, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (the U.K.'s financial watchdog), banned Binance Markets Ltd., an affiliate of Binance, from operating in the United Kingdom.

Now that you’ve got an idea of what Safemoon is and its background, we can focus on the coin’s long-term outlook. Most beginner crypto investors simply buy Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH), although lesser-known coins such as Safemoon can be better options if you are looking for quick returns. However, that being said, these options tend to be much riskier, so this will depend on your risk tolerance.
Safemoon is a token on the Binance Smart Chain rather than a coin on its own blockchain. This fact makes purchasing Safemoon very easy. You can swap other tokens for Safemoon on a decentralized exchange (DEX) like PancakeSwap on the BSC.
