Binance SAFU Fund Converting to BTC

Binance cryptocurrency exchange has purchased the first 1.315 Bitcoin (BTC) as part of the Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU) conversion plan. The BTCs worth 101 million dollars were acquired at an average price of 77.409,89 dollars according to Blockchain.com data. Binance announced that it will transfer the remaining 1 billion dollars of SAFU from stablecoins to BTC within the next 27 days. SAFU, established in 2018 and funded by Binance trading fees, will continue to be used as a user protection pool against user losses in extraordinary events.

SAFU’s stablecoin portion was transferred from BUSD to USDC in 2024, preserving liquidity and US dollar peg. With this new step, the fund will fully convert to BTC, supporting user protection with the sector’s main long-term store of value. Binance has approximately 900 million dollars in BTC purchasing power. This development occurred following a sharp crypto sell-off where BTC price fell below 75.000 dollars.
