During periods of volatility and pressure in the market, the impact felt throughout the industry is also naturally perceived at Binance. This reflects the broader challenges our industry must face as it continues to mature. As the crypto ecosystem expands and becomes more complex, expectations continue to rise, especially regarding governance, risk management, and accountability.
As a global leader in the sector, we demand higher standards from ourselves and continuously work to improve and adapt, always taking the feedback from our community and the general public seriously.
In 2025, as part of Binance's ongoing investment in the development of the industry, we carried out the following work focused on risk control, compliance cooperation, and ecosystem building:
Recovery of incorrect deposits: In 2025, Binance assisted users in 38,648 cases of incorrect deposit recovery, totaling 48 million dollars. To date, Binance has helped recover an accumulated amount exceeding 1.090 million dollars.
Risk control and user protection: We assisted 5.4 million users during the year in identifying potential risks, cumulatively preventing approximately 6.690 million dollars in losses related to scams.
Combating illegal activities and cooperating with law enforcement: We collaborate with security agencies worldwide to combat illicit activities, allowing authorities to seize 131 million dollars in improperly acquired funds.
Token listing distribution and ecosystem diversity: In 2025, Binance's spot listing program covered 21 public blockchains, mainly ETH, BSC, and SOL (32, 18, and 9 projects respectively). Among these 21 blockchains, 13 were recently launched, including blockchains for payments, gaming, social networks, and other use cases.
Asset and reserve transparency: By the end of 2025, Binance's proof-of-reserves showed user assets of approximately 162.800 million dollars fully backed, covering 45 different crypto assets.
When questions and concerns arise, we respond with action. Through these efforts, we seek to support the sustainable and long-term growth of the industry.
Guided by our belief that BTC is the main asset in the crypto ecosystem and represents long-term value, Binance will continue to support the industry during market cycles and uncertainty, continually investing resources in the crypto ecosystem. Therefore, Binance will convert the stablecoin reserves worth 1 billion dollars from the SAFU fund into Bitcoin reserves, with plans to complete the conversion within 30 days following this announcement.
Binance will carry out a regular rebalancing of the SAFU fund based on monitoring its market value. If the market value of the fund falls below 800 million dollars due to fluctuations in the price of BTC, Binance will rebalance the fund to restore its value to 1 billion dollars. This initiative is part of Binance's long-term commitment to building the industry, and we will continue to drive related efforts and share updates with the community.
Binance will continue to respond to market concerns with actions, actively participating and promoting industry development under the principles of openness, transparency, and long-term commitment.
Finally, we thank the Binance community, our users, and the Binance Angels for their continued support and trust in Binance.
