There’s a question I get a lot: Why #Binance ?
Not the superficial answer — not “biggest exchange,” not “most liquidity,” not “global brand.”
The real reason.The one underneath everything.
After digging through Binance’s 2025 data, trying features myself, reading their research reports, and watching @CZ at Davos change the tone of the room without trying… I finally understood something important:
#Binance didn’t win by competing with exchanges.It won by becoming the infrastructure everyone else quietly relies on.And the signs were everywhere — hiding in plain sight.
1. It Started With a Small Feature That Revealed a Bigger Shift.When Binance Wallet (Web) added Perpetual Futures trading, I tested it expecting a basic integration.But this wasn’t a “feature update.”
It was a direction change.Trading perps inside the wallet felt… natural.
No switching screens.No adjusting to new layouts.No syncing assets across multiple places.For the first time, the wallet wasn’t a vault — it felt like a trading cockpit.That’s when I realized Binance is not adding features.It’s removing friction.And that alone separates it from the entire industry.
2. The 2025 Research Report Showed the Part Nobody Is Talking About.While everyone focused on price charts, something more important happened:2025 quietly changed crypto — through usage, not hype.
A few things jumped out:
• Bitcoin decoupled from on-chain noise — it behaved like a macro asset
• DeFi generated $16.2B in revenue — more than Nasdaq + CME
• Stablecoins settled $33T — nearly 2× Visa
• RWAs by BlackRock, VanEck, Franklin Templeton went live — not “pilots,” not “experiments”
This was real adoption.
This was finance moving on-chain because it works, not because it’s trending.And right in the center of this ecosystem stood Binance — operating, scaling, clearing liquidity, absorbing flows.
3. The 2025 State of Blockchain Data Told the Truth About Where Crypto Actually RunsMost people saw the headline numbers.I saw something different: control at scale — the hardest thing for any infrastructure to achieve.
Execution & Liquidity
• $34T traded across all Binance products
• $7.1T spotted alone
• 18% growth in average daily trading volume
• 1,889 spot pairs and 584 futures markets
This isn’t “exchange traffic.”
This is where global crypto execution actually happens.
Security & Trust
• 96% reduction in exposure to illicit categories
• $6.69B in potential fraud losses prevented
• $162.8B verified through Proof of Reserves
Trust is not a slogan anymore — it’s a measurable output.
Real Users, Real Adoption
• 17M users onboarded to Web3 via Alpha
• $1T+ on-chain volume
• 20M+ merchants using Binance Pay
• $1.2B distributed through Earn
Crypto didn’t hype its way into daily life — it quietly became part of it.
4. Then Davos Happened — And CZ Showed Why Leadership Still MattersCZ at Davos wasn’t selling crypto.He wasn’t pitching Binance.
He was explaining reality — calmly, without theatrics:
Governments tokenizing assets.
Payments quietly merging with crypto.
AI agents needing native programmable money.
This wasn’t the future.
This was implementation catching up to what already exists.And then came the line that changed the room:
“Binance served 300M+ users and processed more volume than the NYSE and SSE.”
Suddenly it wasn’t “crypto vs finance.”It was: crypto is already infrastructure.
And the stress test numbers?
• $7B withdrawn in a day
• $14B in a week
• Zero disruption
Bank runs aren’t caused by speed.
They’re caused by design flaws.
Binance didn’t flinch because it was engineered for realities traditional systems still can’t handle.
5. My Answer: Why #Binance ?
Because this is where everything actually runs.
Not hype.
Not narratives.
Not wishful thinking.
Trading. Liquidity. Settlement. Payments. Web3 onboarding. Fraud prevention. Institutional flows. Retail adoption. Global scaling. User protection.
All functioning at the same time.And that’s the part people underestimate.Binance didn’t become dominant because crypto grew.Crypto grew because #Binance built the rails beneath it.Trying the new Wallet + Perps integration showed me the micro-level truth.Reading the research reports showed me the macro-level truth.Watching CZ at Davos showed me the leadership truth.And all of them lead to the same conclusion:
Binance isn’t “the biggest exchange.”It’s the backbone of the digital financial system taking shape right now.2026 won’t need narratives.Infrastructure already won the argument.And Binance built more of it than anyone else.
The Leadership is Best we guys can get 🙌
@CZ @Richard Teng @Yi He Thankyou for #Binance 💛 & Best Crypto content platform #Square
