Binance Bets Big: $1B SAFU Fund Goes Full Bitcoin-Because Why Not?

Oh, Binance. Always the drama queen of the crypto world. This time, they’ve decided to spice things up by turning their $1 billion SAFU fund into a Bitcoin-only party. Yes, you heard that right. All stablecoins? Gone. Bitcoin? Hello, darling. Over the next 30 days, they’re basically saying, “We’re all in on BTC, volatility be damned.”
