In these days Binance had a technical problem, and had to temporarily block the activities.
Now it has resumed, but many users are still unable to connect to the site to use it. But there is a way to connect to the exchange.
In fact, the site that is still inaccessible to many is the international one: www.binance.com.
However, the version for the American public seems to work correctly: us.binance.com.
Those registered in the international version are in fact also registered for the American market, and can operate in exactly the same way. So if you can not access to the classic one you can easily go to https://us.binance.com and use that version.
Binance is a cryptocurrency exchange with a focus on the Chinese market and other Chinese coins. Currently, it supports English and Chinese users. The Binance token (BNB) was created during the ICO event to fund the development of the exchange.
It is capable of processing 1.4 mil orders/second, has multi-language support – Chinese, English, Korean, Japanese and has all the major coins available.
It started in China in mind-2017 but shifted base to Hong Kong after the after the China government banned cryptocurrency exchanges.
It is a centralized exchange but a reliable one because despite handling the volume it does on a regular basis, there have been no reports of it being hacked or going down.
Being a centralized exchange like Bittrex and Poloniex, adopted a unique way of funding themselves through the ICO, which concluded in July 2017. And with the money raised, Binance has to an extent, and continues to solve the pain points of centralized exchanges that they had identified and elucidated in their white paper.
