6 months ago, my savings went down because of the FTX debacle. I've never used FTX, I've never been a customer of this company, but my savings are in BTC, and because of that failure, BTC's value went down, and so went my savings.
Today, bis repetita. I've never used Binance. I've never been a customer of this company, but because the SEC sues Binance, BTC is down, and so are my savings, so I have a message to all bitcoiners out there.
Exchanges and BTC are 2 different things. One exchange going down doesn't mean BTC must follow.
Binance will disappear? I don't give a damn.
One thing about the Bitcoin market is that it always goes with the trend, which is why the price is always affected whenever there is bad news, just like you said about FTX. When you tell people that exchanges are not safe to keep your money on, people don't believe you. What happened with FTX should be a lesson to many.
People who do not learn will continue to deposit their money in exchanges because they believe it is safe and easy to transact with, which is why they constantly keep their money there.
