Binance-kunder har tatt ut 3,64 milliarder dollar
Uttakene skjøt fart etter tidenes største kryptotyveri.
Kryptomarket Binance introduced a phased return to withdrawals for users on Sunday. Since then, customers have taken out $3.64 billion, equivalent to 2.1 percent of the assets Binance manages, according to the company's statement to Tagesschau. Binance claims the withdrawals have stabilized after a sharp increase. However, DefiLlama estimates that $5.81 billion has left the exchange.
Binance disputes this figure, asserting that internal transfers to the company's own digital wallets have been mistakenly included. Hackers stole $6.3 billion on Thursday. Binance notes that around 95 percent of the stolen customer funds are now replaced with funds from the company's reserves. Bitcoin surged to over $78,000 on Monday after falling 5 percent when the attack was discovered.
The FBI suspects a state-sponsored hacker group from North Korea was behind the breach, possibly through an employee's computer, as reported by Tagesschau. The story was written with the assistance of an AI tool.
