Crypto exchange Binance launches in Syria after Trump lifts sanctions
Binance’s rollout in Syria features a full access launch, allowing Syrians to trade at least 300 tokens, including Bitcoin, XRP, Toncoin and more.
Binance, one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges, became one of the first crypto trading platforms to launch in Syria after the easing of US and European Union sanctions in May.
Syrian residents can now access Binance’s platform and trade crypto assets like Bitcoin (BTC), the company announced on Thursday.
The launch follows US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s May 23 decision to lift sanctions on Syria, which was followed by the EU lifting all economic restrictions on the country.
