I think if binance joins the collapse then the crypto market will be greatly affected by this, we know that last year was a bear which was very scary if we added to the collapse of binance, it can be concluded that the crypto market will crash very big, but I'm also confused why btc is still continues to rise when many predict that btc will still go down.
That is the worst scenario that we can think of, specially if you are a perma bear against crypto. It might not be as big as the Mt. Gox heist, because we have a lot of exchanges that we can go if in case Binance will go down. However, I'm not saying that it's too big to fall or what, everyone here can collapse like FTX, but I think CZ is not as tricky as SBF and we can't compare the two personalities.
There is nothing short of FUDs in the crypto market especially for big names such as Binance. Recently there are so many accusations about Binance and even the U.S Senator has inquired. According to Binance's response
https://www.binance.com/en/blog/ecosystem/binance-shares-its-recent-response-to-us-senators-inquiry-1968152125579137703 , there are some public misconceptions about Binance and the team had already clarified. When I read the news, the first thing came to my mind was that BNB price was doomed to decrease dramatically. However, Binance US's weekly trading volume reached 41% of Coinbase's (global) trading volume last week, which is an ATH. (Source:https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1641728341962096641). At the same time, BNB price is still around $320, showing very little volatility. What makes Binance so strong faced with so many unfavorable conditions ? Please share your opinions.
First the issue is not that big in the beginning, yeah it's just a misconception and CZ has cleared that thing though. But if they needed more explanation, for sure he is more willing to explain it to US Senators or from which US authorities is going after him.
Second, he could have himself surrounded by big lawyers, who might be advising him on how to deal with this lawsuits and litigation form US. That's why he responded swiftly and it has substance.
Third, as I have said, SBF and CZ is very different, CZ will not allow anyone to stop him. He is growing bigger by the day, and this is due to his hardwork, and he won't simply let it go down the pipe just because the US is going after Binance.
