The island of Jersey, which has a population of around 100,000 and is located near the coast of Normandy France, is officially not part of the UK, but as far as the its relationship with the rest of the world are concerned, it is treated as though it was a dependency of the UK.
Binance's announcement on its website said currently four trading pairs are available: BTC/GBP, ETH/GBP, BTC/EUR, and ETH/EUR:
"Binance is excited to announce that Binance’s EUR/GBP Fiat Exchange, Binance.je, is now online, with trading in BTC/GBP, ETH/GBP, BTC/EUR and ETH/EUR trading pairs now open. Registrations, deposits and withdrawals are now also available."
"The first 5,000 users to register and complete Account Verification (KYC) on www.binance.je will be rewarded with 20 EUR."
