Binance

Binance is the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange by daily trading volume, founded by Changpeng Zhao (CZ) in 2017. The platform supports a vast number of cryptocurrencies and offers a wide range of order types including limit, market, stop-limit, trailing stop, and post-only orders. Binance also provides margin trading, peer-to-peer trading, staking services, and its own blockchain ecosystem (BNB Chain). It has become a central hub in the global crypto industry despite facing regulatory scrutiny in several jurisdictions.
