A post by @cz_binance on X.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) said the exchange covered recent losses entirely from its own balance sheet, without borrowing money, selling assets, or raising external funds. In a post on X, CZ emphasized that this distinguishes Binance from other industry incidents people frequently compare it to, an apparent reference to past exchange collapses that involved customer fund mismanagement. The statement matters because it signals Binance's financial strength and self-funded approach to absorbing shocks, reinforcing confidence in the exchange's solvency at a time when exchange stability remains a key market concern. No specific figures were disclosed for the size of the loss or Binance's balance sheet coverage. Traders will watch for any follow-up disclosures on the incident's cost and whether Binance provides audited proof-of-reserves updates to substantiate the claim.
