Cointime Official

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) intends to sue stablecoin issuer Paxos, and the New York Department of Financial Services ordered Paxos to stop creating more of its BUSD token.

CZ highlighted on twitter that BUSD is issued and redeemed by Paxos and funds are SAFU!

BUSD is a stablecoin wholly owned and managed by Paxos. As a result, BUSD market cap will only decrease over time. Paxos will continue to service the product, and manage redemptions.

Paxos also assured Binance the funds are SAFU, and fully covered by reserves in their banks, with their reserves audited many times by various audit firms already.

Binance will continue to support BUSD for the foreseeable future. Binance do foresee users migrating to other stablecoins over time. And they will make product adjustments accordingly. eg, move away from using BUSD as the main pair for trading, etc.
