From the rise of meme stocks to the increasing mainstream adoption of crypto, Wall Street has embraced once-fringe areas of investing and finance.
It is also the case that not all of Binance services are available in every country. One such country, while perhaps surprising, is the U.K. As of mid-2021, as the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) ruled that the company’s U.K. arm is unable to conduct regulated activity, it has had a knock-on effect for U.K. users.
Customers’ digital assets held on other trading platforms are not automatically transferred to Binance.US. Transferring a cryptocurrency from other wallets requires the customers to use the deposit address on the Binance.US account as the target address. Upon selecting the desired crypto, the user can either copy the address or scan the appropriate QR deposit code. Wallets also support insights into deposit and withdrawal history.
After the flash crash, Bitcoin's level on Binance U.S. "almost immediately snapped back to where it had been," according to a Bloomberg report.

Some experts have already expressed concern that the inclusion of the Binance Coin on the platform may prove controversial in the United States. While Binance.US is described as a subsidiary, its business model might draw attention from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission based on the fact that BNB token acts as both a security and a utility token. As such, it could pass the so-called Howey test for being security, thus potentially becoming a snag on the Binance’s path to establishing itself in the US.

This question does not have a plain vanilla answer in ‘yes’ or ‘no’, as the government and the central bank still look unsure as to how to deal with this new-age phenomenon. In 2018, The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) came out strongly and kind of banned these tokens in India. Then in 2020, the Supreme Court of India reversed the RBI ban. That move was welcomed by the crypto exchanges and investors throughout the country. After this, Indian banks have tried to curtail transactions with crypto-exchanges as, in their view, they are governed by RBI. But later, RBI mentioned that banks cannot quote its 2018 ban to customers as it was overruled by the Supreme Court, paving the way for crypto trading to continue in India.
In the meantime, cryptocurrency users (and nonusers intrigued by cryptocurrency’s promise) need to remain ever-mindful of the concept’s practical limitations.
Cryptocurrencies’ finite supply makes them inherently deflationary, more akin to gold and other precious metals — of which there are finite supplies — than fiat currencies that central banks can, in theory, produce unlimited supplies of.
"For any centralized service, we have to do [client verification] and hold customer data," Zhao said. "On top of that we have to hold customer assets. Unlike banks, when the assets get stolen it's difficult to get them back. There's a high responsibility on the centralized exchanges we need to carry out well."
