Binance’s He Yi: UIDs Are Unique, Local Fiat Platforms Don’t Share Accounts

Binance co-founder He Yi said user UIDs are independent and unique, rejecting claims that a UID collision caused asset losses. The affected user mistakenly entered a UID to transfer funds from Binance’s main platform to Binance Thailand without carefully checking the second confirmation step, she said. He Yi and four staff are following the case and helped freeze the funds; the recipient remains inactive and unresponsive. Binance Turkey, Thailand and US are separate platforms that do not share account systems, she noted.

The clarification matters less for the technical point about UIDs than for what it reveals about cross-platform transfers: Binance's regional entities are separate account systems, and a single confirmation step is the only guard against misdirected funds. That puts the burden on users navigating a fragmented brand footprint, and the frozen-but-unrecovered funds show how quickly a transfer error becomes a counterparty problem. Whether the regional platforms move toward shared account infrastructure or clearer transfer warnings is the open question.
