Cryptocurrency exchange Binance is making a significant shift to its commission discount system, effective September 9, 2025. The company will eliminate the existing BNB-based discount mechanism for trading fees (spot and futures). 📚
Instead, the new structure will base discounts on user invitation programs and transaction volume performance. 🎉
Here’s how it works:
* Users with 500+ BNB will no longer benefit from the 40% spot trading discount or 20% futures discount. This change applies to all users.
* The new system will utilize invitation program access, transaction volume, and other performance-based factors to determine individual discount levels.
This shift towards a performance-driven model is expected to affect BNB whales the most. 📈 While smaller investors may experience less direct impact, Binance’s commission structure is evolving into a referral-first system.
Experts advise users to review the referral program and optimize their trading strategies to maintain existing benefits. 💼
Binance price at time of writing: $874 (1.75% gain in 24 hours)
