Implements a new system to correct the mixing of the B token guarantee with the client's funds.

As a result of recent revelations that the trade had a mixed guarantee supporting the striking of its Binance-peg token with client funds, BINANCE introduced a semi-automated process to give a better sense of the stockpiles supporting each crypto asset.

The new binary system always demands confidence, according to the analyst.

Binance hits an ankle token, or B-Token, of cryptocurrencies deposited that can be used on its proprietary blockchains. For example, one eth b-token is struck for each eth deposit. However, each b-token has to be in an eth-backed collateral.

The new semi-automated system will only allow new B tokens to be minted when the associated guarantee portfolio has the required crypto asset reserves. It will retain a certain degree of manual operation to enable Binance to intervene in the event of a security breach. 

It still gives them the opportunity to push the button, in the worst case, and save their face a little bit," conor ryder, research analyst. "But it's not a perfect fully automated system, and we've already seen that Binance has mismanaged the type of typing process that takes place here."

 A company spokesman said the guarantee will be visible on the channel to improve transparency.

Previously, unintentionally binating collateral assets with client assets into the now infamous binance 8 portfolio, causing some b-tokens to appear dramatically over-collateralised. According to the spokesman, the new automation component will also help the stock market manage risks.

Recently, it announced that it would introduce zero-knowledge proofs to improve the privacy of its next proof-of-reserves report. Knowledge-free evidence confirms the truth of a statement without revealing how the truth was confirmed. In the case of binance, it will confirm the changes in the equilibrium of the customer's assets by changes in the hash root merkle of the binance merkle tree.
