To keep Fund Safe for big Exchanger users they keep Fund BackUp in 1:1 ratio called SAFU,
Because in case of subsequent theft, users are returned from the backup fund.
So avoid using all Exchangers and use the Exchangers that have SAFU Fund system!
Like Binance, KuCoin, then Bybit, BitGet,
They deposit in the Safu system!
Which Exchange do you use? Be sure to comment!
All be well, be healthy, Allah-Hafez!
