Is this actually the number of steem on those exchanges?, why not lock it in a wallet or steem it?
Sounds like Fractional Reserve Banking??..

There's nothing to say they don't have a full reserve. The problem is that their entire reserve can be moved in a single transaction, instantly, and it wouldn't be possible to reverse/stop it. They would have an added layer of security if they would put some of the funds into 'savings', which is kind of like the crypto equivalent of a time-locked vault.
