  As a leading cryptocurrency exchange, BYDFi understands the challenges that cryptocurrency companies face when implementing US GAAP impairment standards. One of the main difficulties is the lack of consensus on how to value cryptocurrencies for impairment purposes. The absence of clear guidelines from regulatory bodies adds to the complexity of the situation. Moreover, the high volatility of cryptocurrency prices makes it challenging to determine the appropriate impairment loss. To address these challenges, BYDFi has established a robust internal framework that incorporates best practices from the industry. This framework includes regular assessments of the fair value of cryptocurrencies and proactive monitoring of market trends. BYDFi also collaborates with external auditors to ensure compliance with US GAAP impairment standards. By taking a proactive and comprehensive approach, BYDFi aims to overcome the challenges associated with implementing these standards in the cryptocurrency industry.
