# Starting on Binance with $12: A Practical Guide for Beginners
## Introduction
Welcome to Starting on Binance with $12: A Practical Guide for Beginners. This book is designed to help you take your first steps on Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency platform, using just $12. While $12 may seem small, it's a perfect amount to learn without risking too much. My goal is for you to explore Binance, understand how it works, and discover how to use this amount wisely.
Before we begin, an important warning: the cryptocurrency market is volatile. You can make money, but you can also lose it. This book is not financial advice; it is an educational guide for you to research and learn on your own (what in the crypto world is known as DYOR: Do Your Own Research). If you're ready to start your adventure with $12, let's go!
Audience: This book is for beginners who want to learn about Binance and cryptocurrencies without risking large amounts of money.
A little about Binance: Founded in 2017, Binance is a platform where you can buy, sell, and store over 350 cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and stablecoins like USDT. It offers tools such as trading, staking, and more, all accessible from your computer or mobile.

## Chapter 1: Getting Started on Binance
### Create an account
To get started, you need an account on Binance. Follow these steps:
1. Register: Go to [binance.com](https://www.binance.com) Ref. Code 👉( 55-41/12-94 ) and click on "Register". Enter your email and create a secure password.
2. Verify your identity (KYC): Binance requires you to verify your identity to trade. Upload a photo of your identity document (like your passport or driver's license) and follow the instructions. This can take a few hours.
3. Configure security: Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) using an app like Google Authenticator. This protects your account from unauthorized access.
Security note: Never share your password or 2FA codes. Always use the official Binance site to avoid scams.
### Deposit your $12
Now that you have an account, it's time to deposit your $12. The easiest way is to convert it to USDT, a stablecoin worth approximately $1 per USDT. Here are two options:
- Option 1 - Buy with card: Go to "Buy Crypto" on Binance and select "Deposit with card". Enter $12 and choose USDT. Fees are usually 1-2%, so you might receive ~$11.80-$11.88 after costs.
- Option 2 - Use P2P: In the "P2P" section, you can buy USDT directly from other users. Select a seller with a good reputation, pay using an available method (like bank transfer), and you will receive your USDT. This usually has lower fees, but make sure to follow the instructions carefully.
Your initial wallet: Let's assume that after fees you have $11.80 in USDT. This will be your starting point to explore Binance.

## Chapter 2: Understanding Binance with a small budget
### Explore the platform
Binance has many features, but with $12 I recommend focusing on the most basic ones:
- Spot Trading: Here you buy and sell cryptocurrencies at the current market price.
- Binance Earn: A section where you can generate interest with your funds.
- P2P: To buy or sell crypto directly with other users.
- Events and promotions: Binance offers airdrops, Write-to-Earn and more, where you can earn rewards.
### What can you do with $12?
With $12, your options are limited, but you can still learn and experiment:
- Basic trading: Buy and sell cryptocurrencies to try to make profits.
- Savings or staking: Use Binance Earn to generate interest (though earnings will be small).
- Participate in events: Look for free promotions to earn additional tokens.
Limitations: With $12, you cannot access advanced features like leveraged trading (futures), which require more capital and are riskier.

## Chapter 3: Strategy 1 - Basic trading with $12
### Choose a cryptocurrency
To trade, you need a coin to operate with. Look for a low-cost cryptocurrency with growth potential. For example, according to recent data (April 2025), BOOK OF MEME (BOME) costs $0.005995 per token. With $12, you could buy:
- $11.80 ÷ $0.005995 ≈ 1968 BOME.
### How to trade
1. Go to Spot Trading: On Binance, select "Trade" and then "Spot".
2. Buy BOME: Look for the BOME/USDT pair. Use a market order to buy at the current price (~$0.005995). Buying 1968 BOME will cost you $11.80.
3. Fee: Binance charges 0.1% per trade, so you will pay ~$0.012 for this purchase.
4. Set up a sale: Use a limit order to sell at 10% more, that is, at $0.006594. If you sell 1968 BOME at this price, you will receive $12.98.
5. Sale fee: Another fee of 0.1% (~$0.013).
6. Net profit: $12.98 - $11.80 - $0.012 - $0.013 = ~$1.15.
### Risks and tips
- Risk: If the price of BOME drops, you will lose money. For example, if it goes down to $0.0054, your 1968 BOME would only be worth $10.63.
- Tip: Use a stop-loss to limit losses. Set an order to automatically sell if the price drops to $0.0054.
- Note: Avoid unknown or highly volatile coins without researching. Use resources like CoinMarketCap to analyze trends.

## Chapter 4: Strategy 2 - Passive earnings with Binance Earn
### What is Binance Earn?
Binance Earn allows you to generate interest by depositing your funds. There are two main options:
- Flexible savings: Deposit your USDT and withdraw them whenever you want. Rates are usually 1-5% per year.
- Staking: Lock your funds for a time to earn more interest (but options with $12 are limited).
### Options with $12
With $12, flexible savings is your best option:
- Interest rate: Let's assume you find a product with 3% annual.
- Earnings: $12 × 0.03 = $0.36 per year, or ~$0.03 per month.
- How to do it: Go to "Earn", select "Flexible Savings", and deposit your USDT.
### Advantages and disadvantages
- Advantage: It's low risk; your USDT is safe while you generate small gains.
- Disadvantage: Earnings are minimal. With $12, you won't see significant results in the short term.
- Recommendation: Use this strategy to learn how Binance Earn works while exploring other options.

## Chapter 5: Strategy 3 - Participate in events and promotions
### Event options
Binance offers several ways to earn rewards without risking your $12:
- Write-to-Earn: Write educational articles about crypto on Binance Square and earn rewards. For example, an article could give you $5, increasing your balance to $17.
- Airdrops and Launchpool: Some events allow you to earn free tokens by holding certain coins, but with $12 your participation will be limited.
- Simple tasks: Check the promotions section on Binance. Sometimes, completing actions like following their social media gives you small rewards.
### Practical example
Let's assume you participate in Write-to-Earn:
- You write an article about "How to start on Binance with little money".
- Binance rewards you with $5 in USDT.
- Now you have $12 + $5 = $17, without risking your initial capital.
### Tips
- Follow Binance's official guides to avoid scams.
- Regularly check the promotions section to find new opportunities.
- Use your $12 for other strategies while participating in free events.

## Chapter 6: Mistakes to avoid and final tips
### Common mistakes
1. Trading without understanding: Don't trade without researching the coin and the market.
2. Invest everything in one coin: Diversify, even with $12 (for example, buy two different coins).
3. Ignoring fees: Each trade has a cost (0.1%). If you make many trades, these fees add up.
### Final tips
- Learn more: Use Binance Academy (free) to understand concepts like trading and staking.
- Be patient: $12 won't make you rich, but it will help you gain experience.
- Keep realistic expectations: Focus on learning, not quick profits.
Next step: Once you feel comfortable with $12, consider increasing your investment with an amount you can afford to lose.
