Cryptocurrency is an asset that can be exchange for goods and services, much like normal money.
Binance.US can grab investors’ attention with lower fees than many other cryptocurrency exchanges, but we’d recommend paying a bit more for added transparency.

There are currently three broad categories of cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, altcoins, and Tokens.
But what about now? Well, Binance.US certainly doesn't have the same level of liquidity that Binance does. If we look at the top traded pair on each exchange over the last 24 hours, BTC/USDT for Binance, and BTC/USD for Binance.US, the volumes are as follows:
Binance has grown into the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange. During the month of May, Binance had spot trading volume of approximately $1.5 trillion, which was a 63% increase from April. As you can see in the image below, the volume traded on Binance is significantly higher than its closest competitors, Huobi and Okex.
Coinbase made headlines recently as the first crypto exchange to go public on the Nasdaq, and established firms like Fidelity are adding crypto to their investment offerings. The adoption of online payments using crypto is growing too, thanks to brands ranging from legacy publisher (and NextAdvisor partner) TIME to digital payment facilitator PayPal and international auction house Sotheby’s.
Founded by an alias of “9ZEROES”, DogeZilla models itself as a community-based project.
Cryptocurrency has come a long way over the last decade, advancing at a lightspeed pace. Value can be stored, transferred and spent in different ways through various assets and solutions, while DeFi has pioneered the way for new borrowing and lending avenues.
Bitcoin was trading 1.5% lower Thursday morning. The price was around $59,000 per coin.

Cryptocurrencies are an alternative to traditional money. Today, some outlets accept cryptocurrencies as a form of payment. However, they bear little resemblance to other asset classes because they are intangible and extremely volatile. They are mainly used by traders for speculating on rises and falls in value.
Crypto exchanges on a growth path shared a few common traits: they're larger, more innovative and offer more digital assets than their competitors.
Bitcoin made a new life high at $66,998 on 20th Oct and since then it entered into a retracement phase and subsequently prices dipped below $59,000 in the following days.
When that time of reckoning arrives, only the early investors would have enormous profits. If you want to be one among the lucky ones, now is the chance to get on board and hold on for the important day. Every coin has its day and SafeMoon is yet to bask in the limelight. Its day to shine in the sun would arrive soon and early investors would hold on to fistful of dollars.
The BraveNewCoin aggregated index is chosen as the source of data for Bitcoin, Ethereum and Monero. The BraveNewCoin aggregated index is not used for Litecoin as their index for Litecoin only starts in April 2014 and misses earlier price action. Instead, Litecoin data is retrieved from the BTC-E time series. It should be noted BTC-E has recently (25th July 2017) been shut down by US authorities, however this is after the data interval examined. It has been observed that price differences do exist between cryptocurrency exchanges [19], and it is expected the BTC-E price over time will be different to other exchanges, however with the possibility of exchange arbitrage, prices on different exchanges are reasonably similar.
Cryptocurrency is going mainstream — and becoming increasingly difficult for investors to ignore.
