#USDT. $BNB One of the most novel and common scams in Binance's P2P trading is the intermediary scam. In this scheme, the scammer pretends to be a trustworthy trader and acts as an intermediary between two unsuspecting users. Through external platforms like WhatsApp or Telegram, the scammer obtains banking information from one victim and shares it with another user on Binance P2P. The result is that one of the victims releases the cryptocurrencies to the wrong buyer, while the money ends up in the scammer's hands. This tactic exploits trust outside the platform and the lack of internal data verification.
$BTC Bitcoin (BTC), created in 2009, has evolved from a technological curiosity to a globally recognized financial asset. Its growth positions it as the leader of cryptocurrencies, distinguishing itself from traditional currencies and altcoins (other cryptos). Bitcoin has gone from being worth cents to historic highs nearing $99,000 USD (2024). It is considered "digital gold" due to its limited supply (21 million) and its role as a store of value.
