This article will focus on how to trade on the Binance p2p exchange. I choose Binance because it’s one of Kenya’s most widely used crypto trading platforms.

What is Binance P2P

Binance is the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange – and the most popular in Kenya. Using their peer-to-peer(P2P) service, many people have had the opportunity to earn an income. The Binance P2P platform is also 100% free and safe to use.

How to Make Money on the Binance Platform

Trading Cryptocurrencies

One of the most common ways of making money with crypto is by buying and selling digital assets such as Bitcoin. A trader aims to make a profit when they buy low and sell high – buying the dip.

On Binance, this is done through the fiat and spot. Here you can use money in your wallet (funding) to trade via “fiat and spot”. This is where most people start.

Binance Earn

There are several ways of making money with Binance Earn. These include but are not limited to Savings, Staking, Farming, and Dual Investment. For example, with Binance savings you can earn a guaranteed percentage on your cryptocurrencies. This can be through flexible savings or locked staking (for a specified duration).

Arbitrage (Binance ads)

Besides Trade and Earn, you can make money on Binance P2P via arbitrage. Arbitraging is simply taking advantage of the price difference between the buying price and the selling price of any commodity. On Binance you can make money through arbitrage by buying and selling USDT* (for Kenya Shillings).

* US Dollar Tether (USDT) is a stable coin: A cryptocurrency that aims to keep cryptocurrency valuations stable. It is equivalent to USD.
