Binance Reopens Earn Products to UK Users Following Regulatory Approval

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, announced Thursday it has restored access to its full suite of Binance Earn products for qualifying UK Professional Users.

This follows clarification in UK financial regulation, confirming that staking is exempt from being classed as a collective investment scheme, and a review of how exemptions under the Financial Promotions Order and the Promotion of Collective Investment Scheme Order apply.

The change means high-net-worth companies, investment professionals, and other exempt investors in the UK can once again access offerings such as Simple Earn (Flexible and Locked), Liquid Staking (WBETH and BNSOL), Crypto Loans, RWUSD, Super Earn, On-Chain Yields, and Soft Staking.

“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,” a Binance spokesperson said.

“These are sophisticated clients who understand the asset class and want innovative, flexible tools to grow and manage their crypto portfolios.”

Staking is gaining traction as a preferred strategy among professional investors. Unlike lending, staking keeps assets within blockchain protocols, enabling participants to earn competitive yields while contributing to network security. It also provides governance rights, giving investors influence over protocol decisions.

“Staking is unique because it’s not just about returns,” the Binance spokesperson notes. “It’s about alignment. Professional investors see it as a way to actively contribute to the long-term success of the networks they believe in, while earning yields that can outperform traditional fixed-income products.”

With global interest rates easing, staking yields — in some cases reaching 10% annually — are becoming increasingly attractive to those seeking consistent income without the demands of daily trading.

Binance continues to dominate the global staking and yield sector. Its Ethereum liquid staking token, WBETH, commands a 20% market share, representing more than $9 billion in value.

The circulating supply has grown 18% in the past month alone — the fastest growth rate among major providers.

Meanwhile, BNSOL, Binance’s Solana liquid staking token, holds around $1 billion in total value locked (TVL) and serves more than 150,000 Earn users. Integrated across the Binance ecosystem — including Spot, Convert, Auto-Invest, Margin, Earn, Loans, Fiat, Wallet, API — and supported by over 20 external protocols, it is the second-largest SOL liquid staking token globally.

By reopening Earn products in the UK, Binance is reaffirming its commitment to providing professional investors with institutional-grade tools, robust security, and unmatched market reach.

“This is more than just reopening access,” the Binance spokesperson concluded. “It’s about giving the UK’s professional investors the tools they need to lead in the next chapter of the crypto economy.”

On Tuesday, Binance announced it has become a member of T3+, a new global collaboration program dedicated to fighting illicit activity on the blockchain, and has contributed to its first successful case, helping freeze nearly $6 million linked to a pig-butchering scam.

Launched by TRON, Tether, and TRM Labs through the T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU), T3+ seeks to identify and disrupt blockchain-related crimes in real time.
