Eight years of journey, eight sets of data, the constant is the symbiotic coexistence with the community.
Written by: Binance
Key Points
In just eight years, Binance users have accumulated a total trading volume exceeding $125 trillion, surpassing the total global GDP of 2024.
From outstanding performance and diverse products to the "security first" philosophy and a smooth ecosystem of "savings and consumption," Binance is gradually bridging the gap between crypto assets and daily life.
All of this has been made possible by the power of the global community.
Eight years ago, Binance was born with a grand vision: to make cryptocurrency accessible. Eight years later, the crypto industry has undergone tremendous changes, and we have grown along the way: developing new tools, overcoming challenges, and accompanying tens of millions of users worldwide in exploring the infinite possibilities of crypto assets. On this eighth anniversary, let us reflect on this extraordinary journey through eight stories you may not have heard and look forward to the future together.
1. Eight Years, $125 Trillion in Trading Volume
Since its establishment in 2017, Binance users have accumulated a trading volume exceeding $125 trillion in both spot and futures markets. This figure is 13% higher than the global GDP of $110.5 trillion in 2024. Meanwhile, approximately 217 million transactions are completed daily on Binance, averaging about 2,511 transactions per second.
This astonishing scale relies on Binance's highly scalable infrastructure, which has handled up to 4.475 million requests per second during extreme peak periods while maintaining low latency and high stability. This robustness ensures that the platform can operate with minimal latency and extreme stability even during peak market times or sudden spikes in volatility.
Performance alone does not determine trading volume; a rich selection is also crucial. Currently, Binance offers 1,573 trading pairs, covering a wide range from mainstream coins to emerging tokens, attracting a diverse global user base that actively trades 24/7.
The combination of scale, speed, and variety has established Binance's leading position in the crypto market.
2. Security First: Preventing $10 Billion in Potential Fraud Losses
Security is Binance's core principle. From December 2022 to May 2025, Binance's security team has helped 7.5 million users freeze and recover assets, preventing nearly $10 billion in potential fraud losses. Our risk team is continuously innovating and optimizing detection systems to identify malicious activities earlier, respond faster, and adapt to evolving threats.
We are not just the last line of defense; we are the guardians of our users. Binance regularly publishes security guidelines to help users identify scams, protect their assets, and participate in the crypto world with greater confidence. These efforts may have prevented losses greater than the reported figures.
3. Binance Wealth Management: Users Earn Over $50 Billion
Not everyone prefers high-frequency trading; many users prefer to hold assets and appreciate them over time. For users who do not wish to trade frequently, Binance Wealth Management offers an alternative. Through flexible wealth management, staking, and automated investment products, users have earned and saved over $50 billion in the past eight years. This not only demonstrates the strong demand for crypto wealth management products but also reflects Binance's commitment to making financial tools more inclusive and efficient.
4. Binance Pay: $230 Billion Processed, 300 Million Transactions
While Binance Wealth Management helps users accumulate wealth, Binance Pay enables wealth to flow without borders. The two work together to provide "savings and consumption" features traditionally exclusive to banks, redesigned for a borderless, digital-first world. By mid-2025, Binance Pay had processed over $230 billion in funds, completing over 300 million transactions.
This tool has helped users save approximately $1.75 billion in cross-border remittance fees, providing low-cost, efficient payment solutions for freelancers, merchants, and global families. Binance's vision is being realized: making crypto not just an asset to hold but one that can be used globally at any time and place.
5. 20 Million Users Trust Binance Wallet
For users who prefer on-chain operations, the Binance Wallet provides a simple, secure, and self-managed entry point.
Globally, 20 million users have used the Binance Wallet to explore DeFi, DApps, and on-chain tools, making it a crucial foundation for Binance's decentralized products. From mid-February to the end of May 2025, eligible users on the Binance Alpha platform received an average airdrop reward of $2,569 and $1,651 in TGE allocations.
6. Compliance Expansion: 21.8% of Employees Focus on Compliance
In a rapidly evolving regulatory environment, compliance is the cornerstone of long-term trust and sustainable growth. For this reason, Binance continues to invest heavily in strengthening its global compliance framework.
In 2025, Binance expects to increase compliance investment by 33%, with 1,270 employees (21.8% of total staff) focused on transaction monitoring, legal consulting, investigations, and policy implementation. This is Binance's firm commitment to transparency, accountability, and global regulatory collaboration.
7. Giving Back to Society: Binance Charity Donates $40 Million
Binance's mission is not only about users but also about the global community, including those who have yet to join the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Our community has trusted us from the beginning, and we hope to pass on this support through Binance Charity.
Since its establishment, Binance Charity has donated over $40 million for education and disaster relief, benefiting nearly 4 million people worldwide. Of this, over $5.5 million has been used to support education, including scholarships and grants. These initiatives not only help vulnerable students but also lay the foundation for the long-term popularization of cryptocurrency. Whether in classrooms or disaster areas, Binance Charity is an important part of our efforts to promote inclusive impact.
8. Education Without Borders: Binance Academy
While our donations have reached vulnerable communities and students worldwide, we firmly believe that education should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their background, experience, or geographical location.
It is this belief that led us to create Binance Academy. This is a free open learning platform for everyone, allowing anyone, anywhere to access crypto education. Binance Academy supports 29 languages, ensuring that whether users are newcomers to the crypto space or seasoned users looking to deepen their knowledge, they can find suitable content here.
To encourage learning, we have distributed over $12.8 million in rewards through the “Learn and Earn” program, allowing users to learn while practicing, lowering the entry barrier, and helping more people understand the crypto world in a more intuitive way.
As of now, over 64 million people have built their crypto knowledge base through Binance Academy. Through donations and education, Binance is committed to nurturing a more knowledgeable, diverse, and empowered global community.
Conclusion
Eight years of journey, eight sets of data, the constant is the symbiotic coexistence with the community. These numbers reflect every transaction, storage, payment, and trust of global users amidst cyclical changes and regulatory waves. The future is here; let us continue to work hand in hand—building, growing, and embarking on a new journey together.
