Binance.US Vs. Binance.com
Brooks explained the difference between Binance.com and Binance.US by essentially highlighting how both crypto exchanges differ in terms of functionality, where global Binance exchange offer around 900 assets, Binance.US only offers 55.
Later in the interview, Brooks promoted the efficiency of stablecoin and shared the exchangeâs plan about an upcoming stablecoin project. He stated that the Stablecoin project will amount to â11 billion or 12 billion units of circulating supply on a given day, up 1,100% from the beginning of the yearâ.
âWe should be embedding this so that you donât need Uber cash anymore, there should be Ubercoin. It should be based on our stablecoin. Stablecoins are the future, they donât require an underlying bank to process transactions and they settle immediately.â, Brooks said.
Brooks also highlighted that Binance.US is independent of the main exchange as its service is only dedicated to US customers. Talking about plans such as setting up offices, storing information, the firm plans to migrate the tech stack over to U.S. servers entirely. Unlike Binance.com that lays under regulatory attacks due to its unregistered and unknown workstations in different countries.
âWe already store all U.S. customer information in the U.S. But things like the matching engine and product functions, among others, weâll move onshore over the next four or five months; weâre already in the middle of that migration process.â, Brooks added.
