Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges globally, has officially launched its services in Syria following the easing of US and EU sanctions in May 2025. Syrians can now fully access Binance's platform, enabling them to trade over 300 tokens, including Bitcoin, XRP, Toncoin, Dogecoin, and more. The US Secretary of State's announcement on May 23 regarding the sanctions relief marked a significant step for crypto trading in Syria. Prior to this, compliance with sanctions had prevented Binance from serving Syrian users. Now, users can engage in various trading activities, including spot, peer-to-peer (P2P), and futures trading, contingent on completing Binance's KYC requirements. Among the new features available to Syrian users is Binance Pay, which allows for efficient cross-border remittances, alongside educational resources provided in Arabic. With a historical context of a significant expatriate population, this launch presents new economic opportunities for both residents and the diaspora.
