The crypto spring is being felt more clearly in the crypto market not only with warming outside the window but also with the activation of many investors, who, following Bitcoin, raised the value of most other crypto assets last week. The reasons for the growth have not yet been precisely established, but it can already be assumed that the robotic trading systems have noted an increase in the number of transactions for the purchase of digital assets, which began because of a number of favorable news about the largest projects in the sector. In particular, this was influenced by the outcome of the Deconomy conference, as well as a number of legislative initiatives to regulate the crypto industry adopted in the U.S. and EU.

Binance is one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges in the market, which was founded in Hong Kong in 2017 by the famous crypto entrepreneur Changpeng Zhao. In just six months since the launch, the exchange entered the top among competing platforms, and today, its daily trading volume is more than $1.7 billion. Many digital currency holders choose it because of the wide range of trading instruments, the user-friendly interface, high level of asset protection, and the fact that using the BNB internal token for paying fees reduces their size by 25%. The official Binance app was released in September 2017 and is available for free download on Google Play and the company’s official website.
