Security, Scams & Risk
Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU)
Also: SAFU
An emergency fund that an exchange, Binance most famously, sets aside to cover users in the event of a hack or other crisis. Binance's fund, started in 2018, has held different assets over time, including stablecoins and, since early 2026, bitcoin, so its dollar value can move. It is also a meme for "safe." Check what it actually covers.
