Binance Laughs at FUD: ‘Our Users Have More Money Than Sense’

by

Ah, the great crypto circus continues, and Binance, the ringmaster with a penchant for juggling numbers, has once again stolen the show. Despite the Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) swirling around like a confused bat at a disco, Binance remains the top dog in the crypto kennel. Or should we say, the top cat? After all, cats always land on their feet, even when the market’s doing the limbo.

According to the wise sages at Coingecko, Binance held a whopping 39% market share in 2025. Bybit, the plucky underdog, trailed behind with a mere 8%. That’s like comparing a dragon to a slightly damp newt. And Coinbase? Well, they’re sixth. Sixth! That’s not even a silver medal; it’s more like a participation trophy made of soggy cardboard.

Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the man with a name that sounds like a magical incantation, quipped,

“Real users vote with their money.”

Oh, the shade! It’s thicker than a troll under a bridge. And let’s not forget the accusations that Binance caused the 10 October crash and the so-called “crypto winter.” Because, of course, it’s always the juggler’s fault when the balls drop.

Binance’s Unshakable Resolve in the Face of FUD

The FUD reached fever pitch recently when some users, presumably with nothing better to do, urged their followers to flee Binance faster than a wizard running from a tax audit. This was after the platform had a spot of bother with withdrawals on 3 February. But fear not! AMBCrypto’s crack team of investigators (read: people with spreadsheets) found these rumors to be about as reliable as a weather forecast from a drunk gnome.

CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju chimed in with a zinger:

“Dear Binance FUDers, great job. You triggered a $600M net outflow rush, a whopping 0.3% of their total reserves.”

Ouch. That’s like trying to drain the ocean with a teacup. Good effort, though.

Even on a year-on-year basis, Binance only lost 0.5% of its market share. That’s less than the amount of milk that spills when a wizard tries to pour tea. Meanwhile, Hyperliquid DEX, despite its growing clout, couldn’t quite knock Binance off its perch. Surprise, surprise.

Bybit, the runner-up, lost 13% of its share. Upbit, on the other hand, took a nosedive of 19% after a $38 million hack in November. That’s like losing your wallet and then realizing it was full of Monopoly money. Oops.

And then there’s MEXC, the phoenix of the crypto world, rising from the ashes of a 90% growth spurt despite a massive community backlash in late 2025. Apparently, blocking customer funds is the new black.

What’s BNB Up To?

BNB’s price took a tumble below $800 for the first time since last August, thanks to a market correction that feels like a rollercoaster designed by a sadist. If this keeps up, we might see BNB back in the $500-$600 range sooner than you can say “hodl.”

Final Musings

  • Binance held onto its crown in 2025 with a 39% market share, only dropping 0.5% from 2024. That’s like losing a single sock in a drawer full of them.
  • BNB dipped below $800, proving that even the mightiest of altcoins can’t escape the gravitational pull of a risk-off market.
