Binance Wallet Debuts Security Center with 200+ Risk Detection Models

Binance Wallet launches first comprehensive Web3 security hub featuring real-time vulnerability scanning across wallet, asset, and transaction risks.

Binance Wallet Debuts Security Center with 200+ Risk Detection Models

Binance Wallet rolled out its Security Center on February 3, 2026, marking what the exchange claims is the first dedicated security hub built specifically for Web3 wallets. The feature consolidates fragmented security tools into a single dashboard while adding real-time vulnerability monitoring—a direct response to the uneven security standards plaguing decentralized finance.

The centerpiece is Security Scan, an automated monitoring system running over 200 detection models. It continuously checks four risk categories: wallet security (backup status, verification methods), asset security (flagging suspicious tokens), approval security (identifying contracts with excessive permissions), and transaction security (detecting known fraudulent addresses).

What makes this interesting for traders: the system categorizes threats by severity and provides specific fix recommendations rather than generic warnings. If you've granted unlimited token approvals to some sketchy DeFi protocol three months ago and forgot about it, Security Scan will surface that.

Beyond Binance's Ecosystem

The Security Center works with both Binance's native Keyless Wallets and external wallets imported via seed phrases or private keys. That's a meaningful expansion—users managing multiple wallets across different platforms can run security checks from one interface without moving assets.

The timing aligns with Binance Wallet's growth trajectory. The platform reported a 71% user increase throughout 2025, and industry analysts project non-custodial wallet adoption will continue accelerating as users seek alternatives to centralized custody following various exchange failures in recent years.

Separate Trading Updates

Binance also announced expanded trading options, though these rolled out earlier on January 20, 2026. The exchange added BTC/U and LTC/USD1 trading pairs with accompanying Trading Bot support. VIP 2-9 users received zero maker and taker fees on BTC/U spot and margin pairs, though that volume won't count toward VIP tier calculations—a trade-off worth noting if you're grinding toward the next tier.

Standard taker fees still apply for regular and VIP 1 users. The zero-fee promotion runs until further notice, with Binance reserving the right to end it or disqualify users engaged in wash trading.

The Security Center is accessible now through Binance Wallet's interface. Given the steady stream of wallet exploits and approval-based attacks across DeFi, traders actively using Web3 applications should probably run a scan sooner rather than later.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
