Crypto exchange Binance has announced that its mobile and web application is now “fully available” to users in Argentina after it was registered as an official crypto service provider in the country.&nbsp;
In an announcement shared with Cointelegraph, Binance highlighted that it had been incorporated into the Argentine virtual asset service provider (VASP) registry of the National Securities Commission (CNV). The exchange said this is its 20th registration with regulators worldwide.&nbsp;
This follows its registrations in Kazakhstan, India and Indonesia.

The executive also said that the company sees Argentina as an important market. Nazar explained:&nbsp;
<blockquote>
