February 9, 2026 — In a significant move signaling strong confidence in Bitcoin amid market volatility, Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, has added 4,225 BTC to its Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU). The acquisition, valued at approximately $300 million, marks a substantial step in the exchange's ongoing plan to convert up to $1 billion of its reserve assets into Bitcoin.

According to blockchain data tracked by platforms like Arkham and confirmed by Binance, the SAFU fund's Bitcoin holdings now stand at 10,455 BTC, with an estimated total value exceeding $730 million (depending on real-time pricing). This latest purchase came as Bitcoin experienced a dip, with reports noting the asset trading below $60,000 in some sessions.
The acquisition is part of Binance's broader strategy announced in late January 2026 to shift a portion of its SAFU reserves—originally held in stablecoins—from dollar-pegged assets to Bitcoin over a 30-day period. The exchange has committed to maintaining the fund's value, pledging to replenish it if Bitcoin's price fluctuations cause the holdings to drop below certain thresholds (such as $800 million in some outlined scenarios).
Binance described the move as a way to enhance the fund's long-term resilience, positioning Bitcoin as a core reserve asset against inflation and other market uncertainties. The SAFU fund, established in 2018 following a major hack, serves as an emergency insurance pool to protect user assets in extreme cases.
This purchase represents one of the larger tranches in the conversion plan so far. Earlier acquisitions included batches like 1,315 BTC (around $100 million) and others, bringing the initiative to roughly 73-75% completion in just days, well ahead of the original timeline.
Market observers view the aggressive accumulation as bullish for Bitcoin and the broader crypto ecosystem. Binance's actions as the leading exchange often influence sentiment, and stacking BTC during a pullback is seen by many as a vote of confidence in the asset's future value.
Details of the Latest Purchase:
Amount acquired: 4,225 BTCApproximate value: $299.6–$300 million (converted from stablecoins)Average purchase price (reported in some analyses): Around $70,200–$70,400 per BTCNew total SAFU BTC holdings: 10,455 BTCProgress toward $1B target: Approximately 73% complete
Binance has emphasized transparency, with on-chain addresses publicly trackable and regular updates provided via official channels.
As the crypto market continues to navigate volatility, moves like this from major players like Binance are closely watched for their potential to stabilize sentiment and drive renewed interest in Bitcoin.
This development underscores the growing trend among leading crypto platforms to hold Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset, potentially setting a precedent for the industry.

Insider selling is accelerating.
I monitor insider activity every single day and the disconnect right now is wild.
Most people have no idea about what’s coming.
Here's the SHOCKING truth no one’s telling you:
Out of the top 127 top insider trades in the last few days, every single one was a sell.
127 sells.
0 buys.
Think about it for a second.
The people with the deepest access and best data want nothing to do with this market right now.
Meanwhile, they’re out here saying “the economy is strong” while quietly unloading everything.
Everything cracked at the same time:
→ BTC dumped to 60k
→ Silver dropped to $65
→ Gold dropped to $4,650
→ Stocks fell hard, especially tech
→ Housing is rolling over (slowly, quietly)
Yes, there was a slight bounce but right now buyers are just being used as exit liquidity.
Insiders are choosing capital preservation over upside, and that mindset likely lasts into 2026.
Based on what I’m seeing now, we’re heading straight into global collapse.
If you’re stressed, it’s probably because you’re too exposed.
Those who’ve been positioning for months see this as a once-in-a-decade opportunity.
Am I saying to liquidate everything?
No.
But being fully all-in right now, especially in stocks, makes no sense when valuations are at historic extremes.
I’ll continue tracking insider behavior and sharing updates in real time.
When I start deploying serious capital again, you’ll hear it here first.

The post (and similar ones) claims BlackRock "dumped over $250 million $BTC and $ETH in less than 5 minutes" ahead of a supposed "Fed emergency announcement." This is classic FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) designed to drive engagement or panic-selling.
No "emergency" Fed announcement today: The Federal Reserve's calendar and recent news show no unscheduled emergency meeting or statement today (February 9, 2026). The Fed has held regular meetings recently, but nothing matches this description. Claims of sudden "emergency" announcements from the Fed (or sometimes misattributed to Trump) are recurring hype/FUD patterns in crypto circles, often tied to volatility expectations but without substance here.
BlackRock isn't "liquidating" in the way claimed: BlackRock manages spot Bitcoin (IBIT) and Ethereum (ETHA) ETFs. Large transfers to Coinbase Prime (their custodian) are routine for ETF operations — like rebalancing, handling creations/redemptions, or preparing for investor flows. These aren't BlackRock selling their own holdings; they're often responses to net outflows from the ETFs (investors redeeming shares, forcing the fund to sell underlying crypto). Recent reports show outflows from BlackRock's ETFs in early 2026 amid market volatility (e.g., Bitcoin corrections), but nothing matches a sudden $250M+ dump in minutes. Past examples include ~$250M–$400M weekly outflows in ETH or BTC during corrections, but spread over days, not seconds.
Similar claims have circulated before: This exact phrasing ("BlackRock just started liquidating... dumped over $250 million... in less than 5 minutes") has appeared in older posts (e.g., December 2025, January/February 2026) tied to routine transfers or ETF flows. It's often recycled for clicks, especially around macro events like Fed meetings or political announcements. No credible sources (e.g., CoinGlass, The Block, Bloomberg) confirm a massive instant dump today.
Crypto markets are volatile, and ETF flows can amplify moves (e.g., recent heavy outflows during Bitcoin pullbacks contributed to pressure). But this specific breaking claim is unsubstantiated hype — likely to farm engagement or shake out weak hands.
If you're seeing real-time on-chain alerts or ETF flow data showing something specific, share the source for a closer look. Otherwise, treat this as noise and DYOR with reliable trackers like Arkham, SoSoValue, or official ETF flow reports. What's your take — are you holding through this or adjusting positions?
