Binance has unleashed a $400 million lifeline to stabilize the crypto market, launching an aggressive relief and liquidity campaign designed to restore confidence after brutal sell-offs battered retail and institutional investors alike.
Binance Unveils $400 Million Crypto Market Recovery Initiative
Crypto exchange Binance announced on Oct. 14 a $400 million recovery effort aimed at reviving confidence in the digital asset market after a sharp downturn rattled traders and institutions worldwide. The initiative, called the “Together Initiative,” represents Binance’s latest step to stabilize the crypto ecosystem through direct financial support and liquidity programs.
“Today, Binance has officially launched the ‘Together Initiative,’” the company said, emphasizing its focus on user protection and the industry’s long-term recovery. As part of the plan, Binance committed to a large-scale user relief fund. The exchange detailed:
Binance will distribute between $4 and $6,000 in USDC, totaling $300 million in USDC to eligible users.
To qualify, users must have experienced forced liquidation losses exceeding $50 and at least 30% of their total net assets between Oct. 10 and Oct. 11, based on an asset snapshot from Oct. 9.
The distribution process is expected to start within 24 hours and complete within 96 hours, though Binance noted that heavy workloads could cause delays. The company said the compensation effort underscores its “User Focus” values and commitment to industry stability.
Beyond retail support, Binance introduced measures to assist institutions struggling with liquidity pressures. The company explained:
For ecosystem and institutional users severely impacted by this market fluctuation, Binance will establish a $100 million low-interest loan fund to help them restart their trading.
Binance clarified that while it “does not accept liability for users’ losses,” it views this initiative as essential to rebuilding trust and fostering a resilient crypto economy over the long term.
