I've heard a lot about Binance, a cryptocurrency exchange platform, but I'm not sure if it's legal to use it. Can you tell me if using Binance is illegal? I'm a bit worried because I've seen some conflicting information online. Some people say it's legal, while others claim it's not. Could you clarify this matter for me? I'm interested in cryptocurrencies and would like to start trading, but I don't want to get involved in any illegal activities. Thank you for your help!

The action was taken as a result of India clamping down on overseas crypto exchanges operating illegally within its borders. The move aims to block local access to these platforms, effectively cutting off access to their services.
