The world’s largest crypto exchange Binance was hit by a technical bug earlier today. The bug, which reportedly affected a trailing stop order, forced the crypto exchange to halt spot trading as well as deposits and withdrawals on the platform as part of its standard operating procedure.&

Spot trading on Binance remained closed for two hours

Users of Binance took to Twitter earlier today, highlighting the issues on the trading platform. The crypto exchange took cognizance of the bug and disabled spot trading in order to work on the issue. This was followed by an update from CEO Changpeng Zhao, who told his followers on Twitter that one of the exchange’s matching engines had encountered the bug. The tweet was followed by his famous assurance, “Funds are SAFU”. 

Zhao followed up on his tweet with another one, informing Binance users that the affected engine was back online. Nearly two hours after the technical issue struck the crypto exchange, the CEO confirmed that the issue had been resolved. However, trailing stops had been disabled, along with the cancellation of existing trailing stops.&
