Binance Hits 200M Users, $100B in Assets

Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange by daily trading volume, revealed on June 8 that it had achieved 200 million global users. As of now, no other exchange comes close to matching this user count. Notably, these figures are based on Binance’s internal reports. In celebratory style, Binance highlighted this accomplishment across its social media channels, portraying the 200 million user milestone as a significant step toward their larger goal of attracting one billion users. A post from the Binance account on X.com read: β€œToday, we celebrate 200 million – and it’s all because of YOU! Your support is the heartbeat of our journey to 1 billion users. Here’s to the stars of our story – you!”

Back in 2022, Binance had about 130 million users. During 2023, the platform managed to add 40 million more, bringing its total to 170 million users. In just the first half of 2024, Binance has already welcomed another 30 million users. If this growth rate continues, Binance is on track to hit 300 million users by 2026.

According to research from Triple-A, the global cryptocurrency user base had swelled to 562 million by 2024, an increase of 142 million from 420 million users in 2023. This data indicates that Binance currently holds around 36% of the world’s cryptocurrency users.

The 200 million user achievement is part of a series of records that Binance has set within the cryptocurrency industry. Earlier in the year, Binance achieved a substantial milestone when the total value of user assets under its custody surpassed $100 billion. This means that, on average, each Binance user has roughly $500 worth of assets in custody with the exchange.

While Binance has had to navigate a variety of legal hurdles, these issues seem to be largely in the past. The company’s founder and former CEO, Changpeng β€œCZ” Zhao, is presently serving a four-month prison sentence on fraud charges. CZ has reportedly expressed regret for his actions and is completing his sentence in a minimum-security facility in California.

Despite these challenges, Binance has continued to grow and strengthen its position within the global cryptocurrency market. Its ability to attract such a large number of users suggests that the company has managed to maintain user trust and confidence amidst various legal and regulatory challenges.

Binance’s strategy to onboard one billion users remains an ambitious goal. The company will likely continue to innovate and expand its services to attract new users while retaining its current user base. This growth will also depend on the broader adoption of cryptocurrency worldwide.

Binance’s rise to 200 million global users represents a significant achievement not only for the company but for the cryptocurrency industry as a whole. As the exchange aims for one billion users, it will be interesting to observe how it navigates future challenges and opportunities.
