(@cz_binance) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cz_binance\/status\/1229648689985134593?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 18, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Binance cloud services for clients who want to start their own crypto exchanges<\/h2>\n<p>So, how does Binance plan this move to the cloud? Actually, CZ\u2019s ever-expanding crypto empire has already begun. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2020-02-18\/crypto-giant-binance-launches-cloud-service-in-revenue-shift\">an article<\/a> in Bloomberg, \u201cThe cloud division\u201d has been running for three months already and employs almost 20 people.<\/p>\n<p>Binance Cloud has all the makings of a real revenue-spinner. The Malta-based company will allow business clients to use Binance\u2019s rock-solid tech infrastructure to set up their own exchanges (including expertise in areas such as matching engines, risk control, and data security systems). According to the Binance blog:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Binance Cloud service is an all-in-one solution, featuring an easy-to-use dashboard that allows customers to manage funds, trading pairs and coin listings, as well as multilingual support, depth-sharing with the Binance.com global exchange, and more opportunities to collaborate with the ecosystem.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>A brand-new revenue stream and a leap into largely unexploited terrain<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that Binance flourishes being on the cutting-edge. So it makes sense that its leader would feel comfortable leaping into the Cloud.<\/p>\n<p>And in fact, rather than just create a new revenue stream for one of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hurun.net\/EN\/Article\/Details?num=A38B8285034B\">cryptocurrency industry\u2019s few unicorns<\/a> (companies with valuations north of $1 billion), it could turn into the company\u2019s main business.<\/p>\n<p>CZ told Bloomberg that he expected Binance Cloud to become its biggest revenue source within the next five years. He confirmed:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Theoretically speaking, we can let anyone in the world create their own exchanges, and the demand is huge\u2026 Even during the crypto winter of 2018 and 2019, hundreds of new exchanges popped up every day.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Currently, most of Binance\u2019s profits come from transaction fees. However, while this is a profitable business model, it is also dependent on fluctuating prices and cryptocurrency volatility. The move to an enterprise-oriented business would provide a more steady source of income.<\/p>\n<p>Binance will be in good company among large tech giants intent on consolidating their hegemony. Both Google\u2019s parent company Alphabet Inc. and Amazon have l<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/investing\/2019\/02\/19\/how-amazon-actually-makes-money.aspx\">ong produced more revenue<\/a> from their cloud services businesses than their core consumer-facing ones.<\/p>\n<h2>Not CZ\u2019s first time with the cloud<\/h2>\n<p>For the man with the Midas touch, this is not CZ\u2019s first foray into the cloud. In fact, before starting Binance, he founded a Shanghai-based startup called BijieTech which specialized in cloud services outsourcing.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, Binance will favor fiat exchanges as its cloud clients, particularly ones in regions where the company doesn\u2019t yet have a strong foothold (are there any?).<\/p>\n<p>They will also ideally have good compliance and standing with local regulators. CZ stated on the company page:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;With these initiatives focused on opening access to Binance\u2019s technology and resources as an infrastructure provider, we aim to limit the technical challenges for platforms and partners, allowing them to focus on their users and local fiat access and accelerate the global adoption of crypto.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Binance is certainly well-placed to become the Amazon of the crypto world. Arguably, it already is. With competition in the niche crypto cloud space still emerging, its main rival will be <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/huobi-global\/\">Huobi<\/a> who rolled out its cloud operations in 2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since Binance appeared on the scene in 2017, its growth has been nothing short of astonishing.
