SAFU is an emergency insurance fund that was established by Binance in July 2018 to protect users' funds. When the fund was established, Binance committed a percentage of trading fees to grow it to a sizable level to safeguard users. The fund's value fluctuates based on the market and SAFU fund wallets comprise BNB, BUSD, and BTC.
SAFU addresses hold over $700 million in Binance ecosystem token BNB and Binance USD (BUSD), a stablecoin. The bitcoin address holds over $300 million worth of BTC.
