Binance is the biggest crypto exchange, but beginners often make small mistakes that can cause big problems. Here's how to stay safe and use Binance the right way:
❌ Mistake 1: Skipping KYC (Verification)
Problem: Some users don’t complete identity verification.
Risk: You won’t be able to deposit, trade, or withdraw.
✅ Solution: Complete KYC using your valid ID or passport.
Pakistani users: Link your Payoneer account for easy withdrawals.
❌ Mistake 2: Confusion About Wallets
Problem: New users don’t understand different Binance wallets.
Risk: Crypto may seem “lost” or hard to use.
✅ Solution:
P2P Wallet: Crypto from peer-to-peer buying.
Spot Wallet: For trading.
Funding Wallet: For staking, Earn, etc.
Use Transfer to move crypto between wallets.
❌ Mistake 3: Buying from Scammers
Problem: Getting tricked by offers on WhatsApp or Telegram.
Risk: You may lose your money and get no crypto.
✅ Solution: Always buy through Binance P2P from verified sellers. Never trade outside Binance.
❌ Mistake 4: Writing “Crypto” in Payment Notes
Problem: Mentioning “USDT” or “Binance” in Easypaisa or bank transfers.
Risk: Your account may get blocked.
✅ Solution: Keep remarks blank or write something general like “Payment.”
❌ Mistake 5: Weak Security (No 2FA)
Problem: Using only passwords.
Risk: Easy for hackers to steal your crypto.
