🔹 What “Fiat” means

“Fiat currency” is money declared as legal tender by a government, not backed by gold or crypto, but by government authority (for example, the State Bank of Pakistan issues PKR).

In Binance, fiat is your entry and exit point — it’s how you buy crypto with cash or sell crypto to get cash.
