Nachdem am 2. Februar 2026 Gerüchte über unzureichende Reserven die Runde gemacht hatten, stand Binance kurz vor einem vollständigen Bankensturm. Am selben Tag hatte das Unternehmen die Abhebungen vorübergehend ausgesetzt, was die Gerüchte über unzureichende Reserven, eine schlimme Situation, mit der FTX nur wenige Tage vor seiner Insolvenz konfrontiert war, stark bestätigte.
Angesichts der Abhebungen nach dem Absturz vom 10. Oktober und dem anschließenden Ausverkauf am Markt wurde behauptet, dass die Börse möglicherweise nicht über ausreichende Reserven verfügt, um die Einlagen ihrer Benutzer zu decken.
Binance richtete außerdem eine Unterlassungserklärung an den X-Benutzer Lewsiphur bezüglich seiner Ansprüche wegen der Insolvenz der Börse.
Is Binance Shutting Down? Here’s The Full Story Around the FUD

tldr; Rumors of Binance’s insolvency and insufficient reserves emerged after a temporary pause in withdrawals on February 2, 2026, following a massive market crash on October 10, 2025. The crash, triggered by rumors of a U.S. tariff on Chinese goods, led to significant liquidations. Binance faced allegations of contributing to the crash through high-risk products and potential internal short positions. However, Binance maintains $140 billion in on-chain reserves and has taken steps to stabilize its funds, including purchasing $1 billion in Bitcoin.

so during a panic, do you buy or sell? take your money and leave perhaps?
Well for reminder, there were always rumors about Binance could bankrupt in previous bear markets. And when I look back to those times, those were felt like manipulation created by themselves.
Shut it down
„might not be at risk“ – non-statement
Cease-and-desist letter post by that x user has community note that it is fake and binance also confirmed it is fake. Guy is just farming attention 😂
No. Next question?
Do people realize how much pressure some of these crypto firms are facing, not just with crypto in shmables, but bond markets also potentially about to get annihilated?
I started withdrawing my USDC i hope not shut downs until i do all
most of the salty whiners are those who had money of FTX
Not your keys, not your coins…
This „bank run“ on Binance is nothing compared with the withdraws after the SEC announced their lawsuit.
Outflow were over $30B in a couple days back then and Binance didn’t even break a sweat. FTX couldn’t even handle outflows of 1/10 of that amount.
This constant fudding of Binance is getting old. CZ went to jail for something that many banks have done (and continue to do) multiple times. He took full responsibility and did his time. It’s clear that Binance is something he was proud of and wanted it to continue, even without him. How many crypto CEOs can say the same?
When Binance settled their lawsuits with DoJ and a host of other agencies it was $4.3B. They paid that within weeks, with zero fuss or drama from the USDT reserve accounts, all easily checked on the blockchain.
Binance is the single most relevant entity in onboarding new users in the history of crypto. Some reports have them as onboarding 40% of all crypto new users from 2018 to 2023.
Hate them as much as you want but without Binance, crypto would be a much smaller space.
Binance is still around?
Looks like someone wants the price to drop so they can buy and repeat.
