What is BUSD?

BUSD is a 1:1 USD-backed stablecoin issued by Paxos on the Ethereum blockchain and approved by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). In addition, Binance offers a wrapped BUSD token (Binance-Peg) on BNB.

(Binance-Peg is a Binance product; it is not issued by Paxos nor regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services.) 

BUSD is designed to maintain a stable market value and provides holders with a low-volatility, on-chain asset. This aspect saves time and effort needed to exit the crypto space when closing positions. That’s not the only reason why more users are choosing to use BUSD.

What are the benefits of trading BUSD?

Zero Maker fees for all BUSD trading pairs.

Over 300 BUSD spot and margin trading pairs now have zero maker fees for users who place orders on the order book (maker order).
