I think what they mean is, how do we know that the money in these wallets correspond to 10% of all trading fees at Binance?

I see, thanks for the correct clarification.

I believe that the OP was incorrect in their statement. It was originally allocated with 10%, not stated to be maintained at 10%.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/binance-tops-up-safu-fund-at-...

"Binance’s SAFU began in 2018 by allocating 10% of the trading fee into a fund that is solely dedicated to backing up user holdings in the case of an incident. In February of this year, the fund hit $1 billion for the first time."

And another question is how do we know those wallets were funded with fees? We need to trust the accuracy of the proof of assets versus liabilities.
