What are your thoughts on the new SAFU program? Will it keep our funds safe?
>>To protect the future interests of all users, Binance will create a Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU). Starting from 2018/07/14, we will allocate 10% of all trading fees received into SAFU to offer protection to our users and their funds in extreme cases. This fund will be stored in a separate cold wallet.
It's like patching a flawed security system instead of fixing it. You give candy to the idiots who lose their API keys instead of making your shit more secure.

as if any security system is truly secure, fucking brainlets
how can the exchange make it more secure if the dumb faggots who keep compromising the security are it's users? unless you want them to enforce ip whitelisting for API usage what would you do? (hint: they won't because they'd lose all the volume from those bots on day 0)

chink scam
Isaiah Green
so funds are actually SAFU at this point in timeline?

This is why im in blockport (dex). You retain control over your own wallet.
Smart move on CZ's part. Even if the exchange isn't anymore safe, it gives the appearance of safety and reassurance which helps Binance to remain the #1 exchange.

But the blockchain is supposed to be unhackable! Why don’t they just store the private keys on a blockchain?
Liam Baker
It makes me confident in the exchange's security that they need to use 10% of their revenue to create a fund to cover massive losses whenever they're hacked.

Imagine if a bank announced that they'e going to put 10% of all the interest they collect on their loans, into a fund to cover their losses of the constant ongoing hacks against them, where thieves are successfully walking away with millions and not getting caught.
Would you bank there? I sure as fuck wouldn't.
Samuel Campbell
>cover their losses of the constant ongoing hacks against them I would love an excuse to shit on Binance but so far these hacks have been caused by users being so retarded they deserve to lose money.
Leo Martin
binance wasn't hacked retard they're doing this out of their own good will for their brainlet users who get phished and hacked.
All banks are paying into the FDIC insurance pool also nimwit.
Ryan Miller
This will work because Binance will combine it with application of circuit breakers to suspend suspicious trading activity before the potential losses become too great to be covered by SAFU.
Isaiah Carter
it is you smartass
Isaac White
that's literally what banks do, moron a couple layers of abstraction and you retards can't tell what's happening
wtf. banks uses 200% of profits to.cover the money they steal from themselves. then they bankrupt and fed or bce (you and me) cover losses. fy. cz based as fuk
