Binance.US has spent 2026 rolling out a series of changes to how it prices trades, secures accounts and lets customers hold their assets. The updates arrive as digital assets move further into everyday finance. A Pew Research Center survey fielded in January 2026 found that 19% of U.S. adults have ever invested in, traded or used cryptocurrency, so consumers and business owners in states like Arizona increasingly need to know who operates the platforms they use and what those platforms charge. Binance.US is run by BAM Trading Services, Inc. The company was founded in 2019, is headquartered in Miami, and says it held money transmitter licenses in 32 U.S. states and territories as of June 2026. Availability may change.

Fee and Product Changes Across 2026

The most visible change came on April 22, when Binance.US set spot trading fees at 0% maker and 0.02% taker. The price page lists those rates for Tier 1 pairs. A week later, on April 29, the company launched Bundles, which let a customer buy a range of cryptocurrencies in a single purchase.

The company’s August 20 community update added Apple Pay and Google Pay deposits, price alerts and a redesigned Market tab. That tab sits alongside a ranked table where customers can follow crypto prices across more than 200 listed assets, sorted by market cap, with 24-hour change, high, low and volume. Binance.US says the figures come from its own order books. Tools for converting, staking and over-the-counter trading sit on the same page.

Prices move quickly and crypto is volatile. Nothing here is investment advice.

Security and Compliance Steps

In January 2026, Binance.US completed a SOC 2 Type II attestation, performed by an independent audit firm. The company also states that it meets ISO 27001:2022 and ISO 27701:2019 requirements. A SOC 2 Type II report reviews how controls operate over a period of time, which makes it a more demanding test than a one-day snapshot. Users can also review Binance.US’s safety and security tips for practical guidance on protecting their accounts.

On May 27, Binance.US became a founding member of the Transparency Alliance, a group working on a shared disclosure and integrity standard for token markets. For a platform that lists more than 200 cryptocurrencies, 250 trading pairs and 25 staking assets, consistent disclosure is the kind of practical detail that business customers ask about before they commit funds.

Why It Matters in Arizona

Arizona has its own stake in the conversation. AZ Big Media’s earlier coverage of Arizona’s bitcoin legal tender push showed how quickly state-level proposals can stall. In 2025, Gov. Katie Hobbs signed HB 2749, which took effect on September 26, 2025. According to an Arizona House of Representatives news release, the law allows the state to claim digital assets that have gone unclaimed for three or more years and creates a Bitcoin Reserve Fund that uses no taxpayer money.

Pew’s 2026 data adds the consumer side. Its survey of 8,512 U.S. adults found that 27% of upper-income adults have used crypto, compared with 19% of adults overall. Those figures measure whether people have ever used it, not whether they hold it today.

Binance.US hasn’t released Arizona-specific customer figures, and its licensing footprint doesn’t cover every state. Readers should check current availability before opening an account.

New Leadership and a Self-Custody Option

Stephen Gregory became CEO effective March 9, 2026, with the appointment announced March 11. He previously served as U.S. CEO of Currency.com and held compliance leadership roles at Gemini and CEX.io. Norman Reed moved into an advisory role. Gregory’s compliance background is consistent with the company’s emphasis this year on attestations and disclosure.

On September 23, Binance.US introduced the Binance.US Wallet, a self-custody wallet for swaps across major blockchains and access to decentralized applications. Self-custody means the user, not the exchange, holds the keys, which offers more control and also puts the burden of safekeeping on the customer. AZ Big Media’s guide to using crypto in Arizona covers the basics for first-time users.

Looking Ahead

Binance.US publishes product changes through its blog and community updates, and the 2026 pattern suggests more releases around trading tools, wallet features and transparency standards. The company hasn’t announced Arizona-specific plans. Licensing availability across states can change, so customers and businesses should confirm current coverage directly with the company.
