Binance Fund SAFU “BNB accounts for 44%” raises community doubts: just as FTX is full of FTT

The investor protection fund (Secure Asset Fund for Users, SAFU) of Binance cryptocurrency exchange currently has 1 billion US dollars, but the community believes that the share of BNB tokens in it has reached 44 %, which is different from Binance’s own share. The relevance is too high to be called safe!

currencyAnn launched a series of industrial recovery strategies after the FTX thunderstorm. Yesterday evening (24th), its CEO Zhao Changpeng (CZ) even offered details of the Industrial Recovery Fund (IRI); but on the 16th, CZ had previously proposed “In the Six Commitments to the Healthy Ecology of Centralized Exchanges, it is mentioned that Binance has a high external capital fund, the investor protection fund (SAFU) of 1 billion US dollars. After for the current community to review the composition of the Binance SAFU token, There are concerns that the share of BNB is too high “not secure enough”.

More than half of Binance SAFU is BNB+BUSD

According to Binance’s relevant description page, in November, the SAFU fund has been restocked to 1 billion US dollars, and address 1 and address 2 are available for users to browse. These two wallet addresses are including asset portfolios of BUSD, BNB, and BTC. But Willy Woo, co-founder of CMSS Crest Private Equity Fund, said on the communityto expressBinance’s SAFU pool mainly consists of the currency of the BNB platform, which accounts for 44%:

Binance’s $1 billion SAFU fund consists of $36.7 million in BNB (44%), $30 million in BUSD (32%), and $27 million in BTC (24%).

While I appreciate Binance holding such a pool, it doesn’t make sense to put BNB in ​​it with such a high correlation.

How would we feel if FTX filled the defense fund with FTT?
