Binance was founded in 2017 and was originally founded in China. Later, due to domestic restrictions on cryptocurrency trading, Binance moved its headquarters overseas. As one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, Binance provides users with a comprehensive trading platform and various services.
Although Binance issued an announcement in 2021, planning to "clear out mainland Chinese users", it was not fully implemented in reality. Therefore, mainland Chinese users can still register and use Binance normally.
Register a Binance account
1. Preparation
When registering on Binance, there are a few things to note:
Registration Method: Binance supports registration via phone number or email. Domestic users can use QQ mail or 163 mail, but it is recommended to use Outlook or Gmail.
Access Issues: If you encounter problems opening the Binance official website, you can use a VPN or proxy tool to access in global mode.
IP Restrictions: IPs from the United States and Singapore cannot register for a Binance account, so be sure to avoid using IP addresses from these regions.
2. Registration Steps
Open the Registration Page: Click the link below to enter the Binance registration page: Click here to register.
Fill in Registration Information: Choose to register using email or phone, enter your email or phone number, and click [Next].
Get Verification Code: Binance will send a verification code to your email or phone (valid for 30 minutes). Please check and enter the code in a timely manner.
Set Password: After entering the verification code, you will enter the password setup page. For account security, the password must be at least 8 characters long, including uppercase letters and numbers.
Complete Registration: After setting the password, click [Submit], and your Binance account will be successfully registered.
3. Download and Install the Binance App
Visit the official Binance website and download the app suitable for your device:
Android Users: Simply download and install it.
Apple Users: Since the Binance app cannot be downloaded from the China App Store, you will need to use an overseas Apple ID, which can be done in three ways:
Change the region of your existing Apple ID.
Register a new overseas Apple ID.
Purchase an overseas Apple ID through platforms like Taobao.
Prevent Fake Apps: Recently, many websites have released tampered fake Binance apps that may steal your funds. Be sure to download the official app via the Binance official website link to ensure the safety of your account and funds.
4. Complete Identity Verification (KYC)
Before trading, you need to complete identity verification. The authentication process is very simple, and there will be prompts during trading:
Select the 'Mainland China' region, fill in your real identity information, and submit relevant materials (such as ID card, selfie, etc.).
In general, identity verification will be approved shortly.
5. Set Security Measures
To ensure account security, it is recommended to enable two-factor authentication (2FA). Binance offers two verification methods:
Binance Authenticator: The authenticator launched by Binance, recommended for use.
Google Authenticator: You can also choose to use Google Authenticator.
After completing the above steps, your Binance account will be successfully registered and have trading functionality. You can start buying, selling, and investing in cryptocurrencies.
Conclusion
By following the above steps, you can smoothly register and use the Binance platform. To ensure the safety of your account and funds, please ensure all information is true and valid, download the official app, and enable necessary security measures. If you encounter any issues during registration, you can refer to the Binance official help center or contact Binance customer service for assistance.
