In a thrilling twist, Bitcoin is currently available for purchase on Binance.US at a staggering discount of nearly $3,000. This development highlights a significant disparity in prices and offers buyers a remarkably advantageous rate compared to the global stop price.
Since July 9, numerous cryptocurrency enthusiasts have observed a growing gap in prices between cryptocurrencies listed on the United States crypto exchange and their corresponding global prices.
Presently, the exchange rate for Bitcoin stands at $27,543 along with the US dollar pair. This reflects a noteworthy markdown of approximately 8.5% compared to the global stop price, which is currently recorded at $30,120 at the time of writing.
In addition to Bitcoin, various other cryptocurrencies are experiencing a similar trend of discounted prices when valued in U.S. dollars. For instance, Ethereum is trading approximately $200 lower on Binance. US, with a current price of $1,700. Moreover, certain stablecoins, including USDT and BNB, are trading below their intended pegs, with Specifically priced at $0.9147 and $212 on the exchange.
However, despite the alluring discounts available in the cryptocurrency market, it is important to acknowledge that the majority of investors will find it difficult to benefit from these opportunities.
The reason for this limitation is that the discounted rates are exclusively applicable when trading a cryptocurrency against fiat U.S. dollars on the crypto exchange.
Unfortunately, Binance.US users have been unable to deposit new USD into their accounts since the suspension that took effect on June 9. Consequently, the discount cryptocurrencies can only be purchased using any existing USD balance that was present on the account before the suspensions were implemented.
Furthermore, concerns have arisen among users that Binance.US might soon cease USD withdrawals. Consequently, some individuals have resorted to trading their cryptocurrencies below market value in order to exit their positions in USD.
According to an email circulated on Twitter, which is purportedly from Binance.US to its customers, July 20 is stated as the final day for USD withdrawals.
