Binance says it has prevented over $10,000,000,000 in fraud using 100+ AI models in the past year, protecting 5.4M+ users from Q1 2025 to Q1 2026. According to a recent blog post, Binance intercepted 22.9 million scam and phishing attempts, helping to safeguard approximately $1.98 billion in user funds in Q1 2026 alone.
Binance says it blacklisted over 36,000 malicious addresses and issued more than 9,600 real-time warnings daily to help users stay ahead of emerging threats. In addition to protecting its users, Binance also says it has invested heavily in safety education. Its account takeover (ATO) education initiatives reached over 179,000 users in Q1 2026.
“Through large-scale AI deployment, real-time monitoring, user education, and secure-by-design architecture, Binance is constantly innovating by turning AI into a reliable shield for our users in this new era of intelligent threats,” the exchange said in its blog post on Wednesday. The crypto exchange has done well in 2026, with exchange inflows climbing and its native BNB token also gaining this year. Further, its recent launch of oil and natural gas futures trading was a big update.
