Crypto Giant Celebrates Milestone, Eyes Ambitious Expansion
Binance, the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, announced a significant achievement: surpassing 200 million registered users globally on June 8th. This number dwarfs reported figures from any competitor, though it’s important to note these are self-reported by Binance.
Marking the occasion, Binance took to social media, highlighting the 200 million mark as a stepping stone towards their ambitious goal of attracting a billion users – one-eighth of the global population.
A recent post from their X.com account reads: “Today, we celebrate 200 million – and it’s all because of YOU! Your support is the engine driving us towards 1 billion users. Here’s to the stars of our story – you!”
Binance’s user base has grown rapidly. In 2022, they had roughly 130 million users. By 2023, that number jumped to 170 million, adding 40 million. In just the first half of 2024, they’ve already amassed at least 30 million more. If this trend continues, Binance could hit 300 million users by 2026.
This growth aligns with the broader cryptocurrency market. According to Triple-A research, global crypto users reached 562 million in 2024, a significant increase from 420 million in 2023. This means Binance users make up an impressive 36% of the total cryptocurrency user base.
