However, Binance has rolled out a new feature that allows users to transfer cryptocurrencies directly to their bank, which will be auto-converted and arrive in fiat. The feature is now available to users in seven countries, including India, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Ghana, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.

The exchange also addressed that it is working hard to make this service available in as many countries as possible.
