Bitaigen Research Cryptocurrency markets consider USDT (Tether) the most mainstream stablecoin, pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, offering price stability and serving as a bridge between fiat currencies and the crypto world. Whether you are buying Bitcoin, Ethereum, or engaging in DeFi, staking, and other activities, you typically need to first convert fiat (e.g., Chinese yuan, US dollar) into USDT.
In the Binance app, you can acquire USDT directly with Chinese yuan through C2C (peer‑to‑peer) trading. The steps include downloading the app, registering and completing KYC, binding security verification, entering the C2C “Buy” interface, selecting a merchant, confirming the amount, and finalising the payment.
This article outlines the complete Binance‑app C2C workflow for purchasing USDT, covering download & installation, identity verification, merchant selection, and payment tips, together with safety reminders. Whether you are a newcomer or an experienced user, you will be able to get started quickly while avoiding common pitfalls. For a more detailed, step‑by‑step guide, keep reading.
Important localization notes:
- All fiat references have been converted to USD where appropriate; for cross‑border transfers, SEPA or SWIFT may be used.
- Users located in the United States must use Binance.US (the US‑compliant platform) instead of the global Binance website or app.
- Crypto gains may be taxable in your jurisdiction; consult a tax professional for advice.
