On a global scale, Binance’s influence is equally profound. Data from Kaiko shows that nearly half of all Bitcoin transactions worldwide occur on the Richard Teng-led crypto exchange, cementing its position as the go-to platform for crypto enthusiasts.

These numbers reflect crypto traders’ increasing reliance on Binance for its advanced offerings and seamless user experience.

Moreover, Binance’s success can also be attributed to its proactive measures to safeguard users. A 2024 report pointed out that its security systems protected nearly 2.8 million users from potential losses of $4.2 billion. These efforts have reinforced trust in the platform as a secure and reliable exchange.

This expansive regulatory footprint demonstrates Binance’s commitment to providing global access while adhering to local laws.
