RobynHD stated that Binance has officially commented on the security incident. Withdrawals have been temporarily suspended and should be possible again within 48 hours; deposits are still functioning. According to further reports, a compromised laptop of a DevOps employee may have been the starting point. There have been no indications of stolen private keys so far. According to JJCMoreno, 18,270 BTC worth approximately $1.42 billion have landed on 19 new addresses and have not been moved further. About $2.2 billion in stablecoins have been frozen. Approximately 435 million USDT were apparently exchanged for ETH through decentralized exchanges before the freeze. Another 462,600 ETH worth around $1.04 billion are still under the control of the attacker. The total damage is estimated at about $6.3 billion. According to RobynHD, Binance has announced more information and a detailed investigation report. He noted that withdrawals were only suspended hours after the hack and expressed hope that no further funds had flowed out in the meantime. #BinanceHack #Kryptowährungen #Sicherheit (translated)
