At that time, Binance’s representatives said that they would be sending 10% of the fees charged on the platform to the fund. The fund currently has the following assets on its balance sheet: 7952 BTC, 1,036 million BNB, and 300 million BUSD. In total, the aggregate amount of insurance funds exceeds $1 billion.
