Binance Restores "Earn" Products After Regulatory Green Light

Binance, the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange, has re-enabled its complete suite of Binance Earn offerings for eligible UK Professional Users after receiving updated guidance from UK regulators.

This move follows recent clarifications confirming that staking activities are not categorized as collective investment schemes, alongside a regulatory review regarding exemptions available under the Financial Promotions Order and the Promotion of Collective Investment Scheme Order.

UK-based high-net-worth entities, investment professionals, and other exempt categories can now access the full range of Binance Earn solutions, including: Simple Earn (Flexible and Locked), Liquid Staking (WBETH and BNSOL), Crypto Loans, RWUSD, Super Earn, On-Chain Yields, Soft Staking.

A Binance spokesperson commented on how glad they were to continue their service in the UK,

“Professional investors in the UK have been asking for access to our Earn products, and we are excited that today we can deliver that in full compliance with local regulations. These are sophisticated clients who understand the asset class and want innovative, flexible tools to grow and manage their crypto portfolios.”

Staking has rapidly become a favored strategy among professional market participants. Unlike traditional lending, staking enables investors to earn attractive yields—sometimes as high as 10% per year—by locking assets within decentralized protocols.

This approach not only drives competitive returns but also supports network security and offers governance rights, allowing professionals to influence key protocol decisions.

But a Binance spokesperson also noted how staking allows people to support the growth of blockchain in the country.

“Staking isn’t just about returns, it’s about active alignment. Professional investors see it as a means to participate in and support the growth of the networks they believe in, often achieving yields that surpass those of conventional fixed-income products.”

With global interest rates softening, the risk-adjusted returns from staking are drawing increased attention from those seeking steady income streams without the demands of daily trading.

Binance’s Leadership in Earn Market

Binance’s position in global staking and DeFi yield markets remains unrivaled: its liquid Ethereum staking token, WBETH, holds a 20% market share, with more than $9 billion in value.

It has also experienced an 18% increase in circulating supply over the past month—the fastest rate among leading competitors.

On the other hand, BNSOL, the platform’s Solana-based liquid staking token, boasts about $1 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL) across over 150,000 Earn users, making it the world’s second-largest SOL liquid staking token.

It is deeply integrated throughout Binance’s trading ecosystem and supported by more than 20 external protocols, making it the second-largest SOL liquid stakign token globally.

With Earn products newly available in the UK, Binance is underscoring its commitment to providing institutional-quality solutions, robust security, and deep liquidity to professional investors.

“This is about more than reopening access,” the spokesperson concluded. “It’s about empowering the UK’s professional investors with the right tools to shape the future of the crypto economy.”

In addition, Binance announced its membership in the T3+ coalition, a new global initiative launched by TRON, Tether, and TRM Labs aimed at combatting illicit blockchain activity.

Binance has already assisted the group with its first successful intervention, helping freeze nearly $6 million tied to a pig-butchering scam.

The T3+ Financial Crime Unit is dedicated to identifying and disrupting crypto-related crimes in real time, further bolstering Binance’s reputation as a responsible industry leader.
