WHAT IS PEER TO PEER TRADING?
There are many ways to trade cryptocurrencies. The most common practice is to use centralized exchanges like Binance.com and buy or sell crypto at certain price points against another cryptocurrency or a local currency supported on the platform. Alternatively, you can transact with your fellow crypto holders and swap your assets without needing to track charts and orders.
This second scenario is what we call P2P trading. In the early days of crypto, there weren’t many options to buy and sell crypto. This forced the people interested in buying or selling crypto to meet with other people in person or through online communities to barter their digital assets in exchange for other assets, like cash, vouchers, goods, or other cryptos. Even with the emergence of cryptocurrency exchanges, some traders remain using P2P despite the risks involved with in-person deals, such as threats of violence, theft, or scams.
To make P2P trading safer, various online platforms developed a safer way to facilitate P2P deals. One of these solutions is Binance P2P.
WHAT IS BINANCE P2P?
Binance P2P is the platform we built in late 2018 to enable P2P Bitcoin exchange transactions using local currencies. Three years later, the platform supports buying and selling for six cryptocurrencies – BTC, ETH, BNB, BUSD, DAI, and USDT – using 55 local currencies via 150+ payment channels around the world.
Last year, Binance P2P processed $7 billion worth of transactions made through 3.8 million orders, with daily volumes reaching as high as $54 million. P2P users on Binance grew sevenfold compared to 2019, and they had plenty of options, with more than 2,000 P2P merchants serving their needs worldwide.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF BINANCE P2P?
Among the many P2P solutions offered across the crypto market, the Binance P2P Bitcoin exchange offers several competitive features and benefits:
1. Zero Fees.
One of the biggest advantages of Binance P2P is its absence of fees. While many P2P platforms get a cut out of your transactions, you don’t have to worry about that when it comes to Binance P2P. You get what you pay for, with zero fees.
2. Multiple Payment Methods.
With more than 150 payment methods available on Binance P2P, you can choose your favourite way to send or receive money for your trades.
3. Escrow Service.
As one of the several safeguards on the platform, Binance P2P has a holding mechanism for crypto funds that are involved in any pending transaction. This mechanism prevents incidents of theft or scam by adding another layer of trust, thus preventing malicious actors from stealing your money or crypto without completing their part of the trade.
4. High Liquidity.
As the official P2P channel of the world’s biggest exchange by trading volume, Binance P2P was able to secure large volumes for both buy and sell transactions. The platform has already processed more than $7 billion worth of transactions, which indicates a high level of liquidity.
5. Integration with the Binance Ecosystem.
Binance P2P’s advantages extend beyond trading. As a major feature of the Binance ecosystem of services, you get direct access to Binance’s products and services as soon as you buy crypto via P2P. Most of the other P2P platforms operate separately from major exchanges and crypto services.
6. High Completion Rates.
We set high standards for our merchants. They have to complete transactions quickly and with a high satisfaction rate to retain their access to the platform. With this, we help provide peace of mind to our users.
7. Fast Transactions.
P2P merchants can set their transaction timers to as fast as 15 minutes. This means that you can complete a secure and fast P2P trade with selected merchants in 15 minutes or less.
8. Global and Local Promotions.
The Binance P2P team regularly launches promotions and incentives for both new and existing customers where you can increase your P2P earning or win free crypto. Combine that with zero fees, and there’s a big chance that Binance P2P provides you with the best P2P deals anywhere.
9. Community and Customer Support.
Binance has one of the largest and most supportive crypto communities in the world. It also has a global customer support network that handles customer requests in multiple languages. This level of collective effort bodes well for the level of service you can get from Binance P2P.
10. Growth Prospects.
As a global platform, Binance is always on the lookout for opportunities to grow Binance P2P and make it available in as many areas in the world as possible. This will increase the trading volume and add more trading opportunities for P2P traders.
