This isn't a cryptocurrency problem though. It's a cryptocurrency exchange problem. As you noted, they have essentially reinvented centralized fractional reserve banking with none of the benefits and all of the drawbacks. They're all unregulated banks in disguise.

Cryptocurrencies were meant to put an end to such things. Ironic how corporations ended up reinventing it all on top of crypto. Exchanges are everything that's wrong with this space.
