Welcome,
Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, had temporarily halted USDC withdrawals while it conducted a token swap. The 8-hour delay was caused by the fact that the New York bank that handles the trades still needed to open for the day.
The results? FUD among investors and considerable CEX outflows.
Binance saw an outflow of 75,837 BTC last week for a total of -$6.28Bn in withdrawals.
Meanwhile, Mazars, a global accounting firm, has halted all work with its cryptocurrency clients, including Binance, KuCoin, and Crypto.com, citing concerns about how the public understands its proof-of-reserves reports.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $16,615, while Ethereum is down by -8.31% from 7 days ago. Dogecoin and Cardano are the largest losers in the top 10 list, with -17.33% and -16.68%, respectively.
