Binance, the world’s leading crypto exchange has <a href="https://twitter.com/Biswap_Dex/status/1691358029914996736" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">announced</a> the discontinuation of its Binance Connect fiat-to-crypto payment platform known as Bifinity. 
<h2 id="b-binance-shifts-towards-core-businesses-b">Binance Shifts Towards Core Businesses</h2> 
This move, effective from August 16, comes as a result of the service provider’s closure of supporting card payment services. While this might come as unexpected news to some users, it reflects Binance’s dedication to streamlining its operations and concentrating on its core businesses. 
Binance focus on its core businesses aims to enhance its trading platform, security measures, customer support, and overall user experience. This shift will ensure that Binance remains competitive and maintains its reputation as a reliable and efficient crypto exchange.

Binance <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/binance-launches-bifinity-to-compete-in-the-fiat-to-crypto-payment-niche/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">introduced Bifinity in March 2022 as a convenient solution </a>for users to purchase cryptocurrencies using their debit or credit cards. This feature enabled seamless transactions and eased the onboarding process for newcomers to the cryptocurrency space.&nbsp; 
According to earlier reports, Bifinity is not merely a payment solution, but a comprehensive ecosystem designed to foster the growth and integration of cryptocurrencies in various online platforms.&nbsp; 
Serving as the official fiat-to-crypto payments provider for Binance itself and other blockchain platforms, Bifinity played a crucial role in facilitating crypto transactions and expanding its reach. At its launch, Bifinity supported over 50 digital currencies in addition to currency payment options such as Visa and Mastercard. 
However, like any service, Bifinity’s viability was closely tied to its supporting infrastructure, primarily the card payment service. With the provider’s decision to shut down this service, Binance faced a pivotal crossroads. 
<h2 id="b-the-future-for-binance-b">The Future for Binance</h2> 
As Binance bids farewell to Bifinity it enters a new phase of strategic focus and growth. In May, <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/binance-debuts-new-platform-to-connect-investors-with-crypto-fund-managers/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Binance launched a new platform, Capital Connect </a>designed to establish a direct link between major investors and crypto investment fund providers.&nbsp; 
One of the core tenets of Capital Connect is its unwavering commitment to security. This innovative platform, while currently accessible only to Binance’s VIP-level customers, represents a strategic move to cater to the needs of brokers, hedge funds, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals seeking to venture into the crypto market in a secure and efficient manner.
