Happy 8th Birthday, @Binance !
From humble beginnings to a global crypto empire.
Launched on July 14, 2017, Binance celebrates its 8th anniversary this month — and what a journey it has been!
In just 180 days after launch, Binance skyrocketed to become the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume. But it didn’t come easy.
Back in 2013, founder CZ (Changpeng Zhao) discovered Bitcoin and believed in its future so deeply that he sold his house to buy BTC — a bold move that eventually led to Binance’s birth in 2017.

From a simple exchange, Binance has grown into a comprehensive financial ecosystem offering:
Spot & Futures trading
Savings, staking, and DeFi services
Binance Pay for global payments
