If Binance faces a major hack, it can use its own company funds to cover customer losses. But does the same system work for traditional banks?

The answer is not that simple. Banks don't keep 100% of customer deposits as cash reserves. They use a large part of that money for loans, investments, and other financial activities. However, they also maintain capital and liquid assets to deal with financial problems.

If a bank gets hacked, it can use its available assets, insurance, and other financial resources to cover losses. In some countries, deposit protection systems also help protect customers if a bank fails.

But here's my opinion. I don't think banks should automatically be considered safer just because they are traditional financial institutions. Having a long history doesn't make a system immune to cyberattacks.

At the same time, crypto exchanges need to prove (Binance already proved) that they can protect customer funds even during the worst possible situations.

For me, the real measure of security isn't whether a platform is a bank or a crypto exchange. It's how well it protects customer money and how much responsibility it takes when something goes wrong.
