According to an official announcement: The Royal Malaysia Police (RMP), in partnership with Binance, has recovered approximately $1.6 million in ransom funds from a recent high-profile kidnapping case. The successful operation, involving the tracing of digital assets on blockchain networks, underscores the critical role of public-private partnerships in tackling cross-border crime and digital asset exploitation.RMP and Binance Collaboration Uncovers Ransom TrailThe case began on October 13, when a businessman was abducted in Johor and held for a ransom of 20 million ringgit ($4.5 million). The ransom was partly paid in cash and cryptocurrency, and with Binance’s support, investigators were able to trace the movement of digital assets, ultimately identifying key players involved in the crime.Leveraging advanced blockchain analysis, Binance’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) worked with the RMP to map out connections within the criminal network, revealing a detailed money trail and helping authorities apprehend multiple suspects.ASP Nurul Aqila, Senior Officer at the Commercial Crime Investigation Department, praised the collaboration: “Binance’s expertise in blockchain tracing enabled us to follow the cryptocurrency flows precisely, leading us to significant suspects and recovering a substantial portion of the ransom.”Recovered Funds and EvidenceDuring the operation, authorities recovered both cash and cryptocurrency assets linked to the ransom. This included nearly $443,000 in Malaysian ringgit, $760,000 in Singapore dollars, and $398,000 worth of cryptocurrency. Police also seized a pistol, live ammunition, and handcuffs in connection with the case. So far, 14 suspects have been detained, including individuals connected to kidnapping logistics and ransom management.Binance’s Role in Strengthening Digital SecurityErin Fracolli, Binance’s Global Head of Investigations, emphasized the significance of the case: “Cryptocurrency can be misused in various forms of crime, and we are committed to assisting law enforcement in these complex cases. This success showcases the importance of vigilance and proactive measures in the digital asset ecosystem.”The RMP-Binance operation highlights a growing need for collaboration between the public and private sectors to address digital crime effectively, showcasing blockchain analysis as a powerful tool in modern investigations.As cryptocurrency continues to play a role in criminal activities, collaborations like this one offer hope for combating organized digital crime and ensuring security in an increasingly digital financial landscape.

Binance has cemented its position as a leader in the cryptocurrency market, capturing 27.7% of the total spot trading volume over the past six months, according to the latest CCData report. Among the top 10 spot exchanges, Binance outshines all competitors, with its volume share exceeding that of other major exchanges. Collectively, other exchanges contribute to over 50% of the spot market volume, with Binance taking the lion’s share.Binance Leads in BTC and ETH Order Book DepthThe report further highlights Binance’s unparalleled depth in BTC and ETH order books, with $350 million in liquidity across USDC and USDT pairs. This 5% depth level for Bitcoin and Ethereum pairs positions Binance ahead of competitors like Kraken and Bitfinex, which have concentrated liquidity primarily in USD pairs, with approximately $154 million in depth each. Binance’s extensive depth across USD-stable pairs demonstrates its market-leading liquidity and capacity to support high-volume trades.Top Rating in CCData’s Exchange BenchmarkIn addition to its market share and liquidity dominance, Binance has achieved an AA rating in CCData’s latest Exchange Benchmark, a significant improvement from previous rankings. Binance earned the highest possible grade as the leading centralized spot exchange and also secured an AA rating as the top derivatives exchange.

This increased activity underscores the impact of major political events on the cryptocurrency market, reinforcing digital assets as a focal point of financial and policy discussions.Binance’s user asset holdings have now reached $130 billion — the highest since the platform began its Proof of Reserves disclosures two years ago. According to CryptoQuant, Binance’s reserve percentage climbed to 25% in November, up from 21% a year prior, reflecting rising user confidence in Binance as a secure platform for managing digital assets.Crypto Market Surge Underpins Binance’s GrowthBitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) prices have also surged post-election, with BTC up nearly 20% and ETH soaring by 30%, emphasizing the growing integration of digital assets into mainstream finance. Richard Teng, Binance CEO, noted that these milestones underscore the "strength and resilience" of Binance and reflect the broader acceptance of crypto within global finance.Teng added, “The increased discussions around crypto during major political events, such as the U.S. Presidential Elections, highlight the pivotal role cryptocurrencies play in shaping the future of finance and policy.

Scammers impersonating Binance representatives may create fake profiles, claim urgent issues with your Binance account, request sensitive information like login credentials or two-factor authentication codes, and even ask for fund transfers. They often build trust by using seemingly credible information sourced from public domains.Binance contacts users only through specific channels: Binance Customer Support, the official X account, Telegram, and email.

Binance has released its 24th Proof of Reserves, based on a snapshot taken on November 1st, covering a total of 34 different tokens with assets valued at over $120 billion.The latest report shows that user-held Bitcoin (BTC) reserves have reached 608,000 BTC, marking a 2.09% increase compared to the previous report from October 1st, representing an additional 12,473 BTC. Ethereum (ETH) reserves have also risen significantly, with user-held ETH now standing at 4.699 million, up 6.20%, an increase of 274,000 ETH.On the other hand, the amount of Tether (USDT) held by users has declined. The reserves of USDT dropped by 2.61% to 20.85 billion, a reduction of approximately 559 million USDT. Similarly, user-held Binance Coin (BNB) reserves decreased to 37.939 million BNB, an 8.78% decline, reflecting a decrease of 3.649 million BNB compared to the previous month.Binance's monthly Proof of Reserves continues to provide transparency and reassurance to its users, tracking the fluctuation of holdings across major assets.

According to Binance Blog, In a bid to reinforce user trust, Binance's Proof of Reserves (PoR) system celebrates two years of upholding transparency and accountability for user funds. Since its launch, PoR has been instrumental in ensuring that all user assets are backed at least 1:1, covering 34 digital assets with reserves totaling over $120 billion.Advancements in Transparency and SecurityIntroduced in response to an industry trust crisis, Binance’s PoR has become a standard for centralized exchanges globally. Initially implemented using Merkle tree cryptography to consolidate user asset data, the system later incorporated zk-SNARKs (Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge) in early 2023 to ensure data privacy without compromising asset verification. This allows Binance to demonstrate full asset backing without revealing individual balances.Furthermore, the system now includes user liabilities by capturing collateral and debt data, providing a comprehensive view of Binance’s obligations. As a result, Binance’s PoR methodology now stands as a benchmark, particularly for exchanges that engage in lending but lack comprehensive liability representation.Commitment to User Trust and SecurityBinance’s approach to transparency is grounded in three principles: community engagement, education, and prioritization of user fund security. With almost 240 million global users, Binance has prioritized transparency, open-sourcing PoR code to encourage industry-wide adoption and improvements. Collaborations with researchers, including the Ethereum Foundation, help address potential vulnerabilities, making Binance's PoR system robust and reliable.Educating and Supporting the Crypto CommunityUnderstanding PoR principles is essential for the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem. Binance provides educational resources via its PoR site and Binance Academy, offering insights into key topics like zk-SNARKs and crypto security.Since 2022, even during peak market volatility, Binance has consistently demonstrated operational resilience and user trust. Binance’s PoR, now a foundational tool in crypto fund transparency, reinforces the platform’s long-standing commitment to responsible user asset management and continued innovation in the digital finance landscape.
