It works fine and withdrawals work also but main domain - http://binance.com is down for many people.
Currently most people either use their app (desktop and mobile) or there are two backup subdomains:
- us.binance.com
- kr.binance.com

If you wish to withdrawal something copy confirmation link to browser and change www to right subdomain. No other workaround for now. This works i did it myself.
Due to big downtime, there is 70% discount in fees till 24th.

It is actually VERY easy.
1. go to binance & create an account
2. go to deposit & get a code & the account name to send to
3. in steem go to transfer & enter the code & account name
- Once steem is there you can buy ETH or BTC etc etc with it
- Can also send steem back here if you want to.
4. make a coffee. (when I did it it took ~5mins?)
NB as well as the update binance also reported a DDOS attack (bankers??) so things maybe a bit slow ATM.

Curious how their main website domain is still down for me! @kingscrown do you think it is intentional to try divert some stress from the repaired system?
My mind goes to the nefarious reasons, such as wanting to be able to execute actions without the public being aware. I highly doubt it but I share my thought’s as i have them.
Anyone have the main domain work? Could it just be geo location based?
I don’t have anything on there never leave a token anywhere but in a wallet i control key for, preferably offline generated but depending on the situation that’s not always possible. Really need to get me a trezor or the like.
What’s you #1 pick for hardware wallets?
Whatever happened I have to say that their communication was excellent. I have been following on Twitter, and they gave regular updates.
This massive downtime was still frightening though and made evident once more that you should not store your coins and tokens on an exchange. Always remove them and save on cold storage. Only reasons to keep on an exchange: trading frequently or the amount is so low that transferring it to a wallet would cost too much.

Interesting, I wasn't aware there was a problem, but the update is appreciated. I'm still fairly new here, so I'm still learning everything. ☺ I'm a big fan of cryptocurrency so I'll definitely have to check out your stuff!
