Why I will still prefer Binance over self-custody:
I would be surprised if @binance doesn’t come out stronger over the next 6 months.
Look at what happened after withdrawals resumed:
$4.649B in withdrawals processed
$1.01B in deposits
$3.638B net outflow
Just 2.1% of reported $171B AUM.
Despite the initial spike, withdrawal volumes declined while deposits remained substantial.
There’s something important people often overlook:
Self-custody isn’t automatically safer for everyone.
If you lose your keys, make a mistake or become a victim of an exploit, there’s usually nobody to call and no recovery mechanism.
A well-established exchange offers infrastructure, security resources and customer support that many individuals simply cannot replicate themselves.
Of course, both approaches have risks. It ultimately depends on your ability to manage them.
But trust isn’t earned during good times.
It’s earned when things get difficult.
And Binance just went through another important test well managed by the team and ofc @cz_binance @heyibinance @_RichardTeng

In the car after work, following the @binance situation closely.
Feeling calm as a user, and even more so as a crypto guy.
Binance is handling this the way they always do: with full accountability and putting a face to it. @heyibinance @cz_binance

Respect to @cz_binance for stepping up and saying the Binance hack will be fully covered, especially since he’s no longer CEO, just a shareholder.
Most people in this industry would have just disappeared.

After the Bybit hack in Feb 2025, Bybit bought back the ETH to make users whole.
A few months later (summer 2025) ETH was back above $4k and BTC was well over $100k.
Crypto learns, crypto gets stronger. And of course we trust @binance and @cz_binance.

When BNB started 9 years ago, I never thought I would be ringing the bell for a blockchain token (treasury) on NASDAQ one day. I don’t know what shows crypto and tradfi converging more than this.
#BNB Standard
Today is the beginning. $BNC CEO @odagius at the Nasdaq podium, minutes before the Opening Bell, with @cz_binance. @BNBCHAIN

"bitcoin is dead" was said by many, many times before.
Those were also the best times to buy bitcoin. 🤷♂️

The market gives you plenty of opportunities to enter (or exit). All you have to do is to make the right decisions.
