Binance allows trading in global currencies

Binance has introduced country-specific platforms to facilitate trading in GBP, Euro, and Ugandan Shillings. According to Zhao, the use of crypto is still in an infant stage.

Despite the bear market for cryptocurrency in 2018, Binance could introduce new trading pairs, deliver innovative products, expand the teams, and increase support for more stablecoins. Zhao is optimistic that the trend for crypto would be positive in the long run. It will ultimately be a win-win strategy for traders, who toiled hard in creating the values day and night.

In the past year, a multitude of businesses announced layoffs because of the bear market. But Binance continued its progress even in the bear market by building new teams and launching innovative products. Zhao is pleased with the buildup of fiat in the large markets like Asia and Europe.

Apart from launching new sites to facilitate trading in global currencies, the company would soon introduce technically advanced and exciting services like Binance DEX and Binance Chain.
