Binance

In July twenty seventeen, Changpeng Zhao launched Binance with one advantage: fees at zero point one percent when competitors charged zero point two five percent. No proprietary technology. No exclusive partnerships. Just cheaper trades. Within eight months, Binance was the largest cryptocurrency exchange on earth. The entire business was built on a pricing decision. Each trade generated almost nothing, but multiply that by millions of trades per day and revenue compounds fast. By twenty eighteen, Binance processed thirty percent of all cryptocurrency trading volume worldwide. Binance listed coins other exchanges rejected, giving traders access to emerging tokens before mainstream adoption.
