Deposits in US dollars at the US branch of the Binance cryptocurrency exchange are now insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
As reported in the blog
exchanges, the platform stores deposits of its customers in US dollars on “common custodial accounts” with banks that are insured by FDIC.
“Common custodial accounts are maintained in such a way as to provide access to FDIC insurance coverage up to the limit, which is currently $ 250,000,” the Binance report said.
In mid-September, Binance U.S CEO Catherine Coley posted a post
