>If this is true, how does it get fixed?

It's not true, they're just dipping into customer funds to make risky bets on extremely volatile instruments (more crypto assets) and losing. Along with straight up fraud stealing customer funds and having shit security and getting robbed.

It gets "fixed" by regulatory bodies like the SEC appropriately and quickly requiring a set of rules and regulations on any exchange that operates in country along with auditing, fines, and general fast and effective enforcement.

These exchanges aren't failing because of accidents or inherent risk, they're committing fraud and taking foolish risks that traditional banks aren't allowed to take.
