Live MintCrypto exchange trading platform Binance said that it will temporarily suspend US dollar bank transfers starting on Wednesday, CoinDesk confirmed the report on 6 February. "We are temporarily suspending USD bank transfers as of February 8th," CoinDesk quoted a Binance spokesperson as saying, noting just 0.01% of monthly active users use $ bank transfers. "In the interim, all other methods of buying and selling crypto remain unaffected, including bank transfer using one of the other fiat currencies supported by Binance, buying and selling crypto via credit card, debit card, Google Pay and Apple Pay and via our Binance P2P marketplace," the spokesperson added. Earlier in the day, Binance introduced a tool to help users calculate the tax obligations on their crypto transactions since governments are looking into to ensure they don't miss out on revenue from the industry.
