According to company representatives, the reason was a large backlog of user withdrawal requests.
Earlier, Bitcoin price on the Binance.US platform within a minute fell by 87%, to $8,200. The incident was linked to a software bug in one institutional client’s system — its trading algorithm failed.
Earlier in April, the exchange suspended Binance Coin withdrawals amid record on-chain activity and heavy load on the platform, and in May the ability to withdraw all assets was temporarily disabled.
