Binance Exchange is the leader of crypto exchange platforms. Experts have time and again stated that it is the market mover, meaning that what Binance does, others follow. Example of this could be the recent feud between Craig Wright and Binance CEO Chang Zhao, over Wright’s claim of being Satoshi Nakamoto. After Zhao delisted Bitcoin SV, from Binance Exchange, several other platforms followed it and implemented similar steps to delist BSV.
This shows the influence of Binance in the crypto space, which makes it’s every move extremely important for the market at large. Crypto platforms luring users to register themselves on the platform, or as in BRD’s case, trade cryptocurrency for a stipulated amount makes give users the much-needed motivation to enter crypto trading.
Crypto markets are expected to grow exponentially in the next few years, and the race has begun to capture as much user base as possible. Despite the market crash last year, the crypto space at large grew at a healthy rate. Therefore, applying traditional marketing tricks in crypto businesses models is not only an experiment but also a necessity.
