Binance Starts Up Fund Withdrawals Again

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has announced a temporary suspension of withdrawals for some networks. This decision was made as a consequence of a difficulty the exchange experienced with a third-party technology supplier, according to the tweet. The exchange also guaranteed its consumers that the staff will reply and rectify the situation within an hour, alerting them that the monies were SAFU.

The Binance exchange launched the Secure Asset Funds for Users (SAFU) monetary fund. The fund retains 10% of all trading costs in order to repay customers of the exchange in the case of a hack. Binance wants to set its users’ worries at ease by emphasizing that money is in SAFU, letting them know that the funds’ safety is not jeopardized.

The fund, which was established in July 2018, was valued at $1 billion USD as of January 29, 2022. The fund’s value changes depending on market volatility and includes BNB, BUSD, and BTC wallets.

This shutdown comes as Binance is still recovering from its Curve Finance incident, in which the exchange recovered and froze over $450,000 in cash, accounting for more than 80% of the assets previously stolen.

These meetings may reveal Binance’s portion of the uneasiness that the crypto community appears to be experiencing. However, when it comes to dealing with the effects of winter, Binance has proven to be resilient.

Binance Is Still Strong

In the cryptocurrency industry, the last three quarters have been anything but sunny. The prolonged crypto winter caused by the abrupt collapse of the Terra ecosystem in May, along with the global macroeconomic outlook, has resulted in varying outcomes for numerous crypto enterprises. Some companies have laid off employees, while others have filed for bankruptcy. Binance has shown to be a market leader in all of these areas.

The exchange has expanded by leaps and bounds; having its currencies endorsed by other service providers, supporting multiple coins and protocols, issuing tokens, and playing key roles in growing crypto usage throughout the world are some of the recent activities that the Changpeng Zhao-founded exchange has participated in.

Binance also announced getting an in-principal approval from Kazakhstan a few days ago.
