Binance Offers Non-US Users Access to 1,000+ US Stocks and ETF Options

Binance is expanding its offerings to non-US users by providing access to options tied to more than 1,000 US stocks and ETFs. This move allows investors living outside the US to trade these products via crypto infrastructure.

The new access is provided through Binance's Abu Dhabi-based entity, Nest Trading Limited, in partnership with Alpaca Securities, a US-registered broker-dealer. This partnership enables users to access traditional financial products through crypto platforms.

Binance reported that July volume for transactions linked to traditional assets reached $445 billion, representing an approximately 15-fold increase from January's $30 billion. This growth indicates increasing user demand for trading traditional assets via crypto infrastructure.
