Although crypto discounts appear alluring to arbitragers, most investors need help to take advantage of them. This is because the discount only applies when a cryptocurrency is exchanged for USD fiat on a cryptocurrency exchange. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issue is with Binance. Since the platform's suspension on June 9, U.S. users have been unable to deposit new U.S. dollars. This effectively means that the discounted cryptocurrencies can only be purchased with USD already in the account before the suspensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Worries about Binance.The fact that the United States will shortly prohibit USD withdrawals has also prompted some users to trade their cryptocurrencies below market value to liquidate their USD positions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a Twitter-circulated communication from Binance.US to customers, the last day for USD withdrawals will be July 20. Bitcoin prices on Binance are related.US crypto exchange with a premium of $700<\/p>\n\n\n\n
