<p>Despite Binance’s proactive stance on sharing reservation reports, a practice that gained traction after issues at the FTX derivatives exchange, some industry experts remain skeptical about the level of transparency.</p>
<p>Travis Kling, co-founder of Ikigai Funds, has raised concerns about Binance’s honesty, suggesting that not all accounts should be counted as money in use. He argues that the exchange rate doesn’t directly control all funds. Kling highlights the absence of proof of customer debt in Binance’s report, a surprising omission in the industry, especially considering Binance’s legal battle with the U.S. SEC.</p>
