About Bitcoin

Binance USD is a joint project of the Binance trading platform and fintech company Paxos. It was launched as a part of the Binance Venus blockchain project. It is reliable and transparent because Paxos has licences and permissions of regulators and is audited every month.

Users of Binance exchanges and services, all investors and traders are offered the BUSD stablecoin as an alternative to the fiat dollar. It is suitable for saving assets during crypto market turmoil. It is reliable and transparent because Paxos has licences and permissions.

Bitcoin project history

The project with the stablecoin was created in September 2019 by famous companies — Binance Holdings Ltd and Paxos Trust Company, LLC. The first one was represented by its CEO Changpeng Zhao and his army of developers, while the second one came with a small team led by CEO Charles Cascarilla. Their goal was the modernisation of the financial system by launching a fail-safe global network with stablecoins that would assist other cryptocurrencies in liquidity improvement.

Binance and Paxos immediately received permission from the New York State Department of Financial Services. Also, Paxos Trust Company had already obtained the BitLicense because it had been issuing its own stablecoin—Paxos Standard (PAX)—for a long time. After a short official announcement, in mid-September, Wei Zhou (CFO at Binance) and Rich Teo (CEO at Paxos Asia) revealed the details of the partnership during the summit ‘Invest: Asia 2019’ in Singapore.

First, BUSD had been available for a direct exchange for PAX and USD through a personal account on the Paxos website. Then, in late September, the Binance exchange listed its own stablecoin paired with BTC, BNB, and XRP.
