  Counterparty risk is a major concern in the cryptocurrency market. When there is a high risk of default or insolvency of a counterparty, exchanges may decide to pause withdrawals to protect their users' funds. This is done to prevent any potential losses that could occur if the counterparty fails to fulfill their obligations. By temporarily halting withdrawals, exchanges can assess the situation, mitigate the risk, and ensure the safety of their users' assets.
