Binance 遭遇 63 亿美元黑客攻击，行业呼吁加强安全标准

Binance says exploit may have started via compromised engineer laptop, expects withdrawals restored within 45 hours

Binance's preliminary investigation points to a DevOps engineer's laptop as a possible entry point, allowing attackers to access a service container and submit unauthorized withdrawal transactions. The exchange found no evidence of private key compromise and estimates total losses at about $6.3 billion, with roughly $3 billion already frozen on-chain. Binance said it will cover all losses through its SAFU fund and corporate capital, and expects to restore withdrawals within 45 hours while deposits remain unaffected.

Binance hackers moved stolen funds to same address as Bitget exploit, says ZachXBT

On-chain investigator ZachXBT found that stolen funds from Binance's $6.3 billion exploit and Bitget's $388 million exploit were funneled through THORChain and consolidated into the same address, suggesting a single actor. He attributes both attacks to TraderTraitor, a North Korea-linked group also connected to the Bybit and DMM Bitcoin breaches. Separately, an address now marked as a Binance exploiter transferred 74.56 million ARB tokens to a wallet tagged as the Kelp DAO Hacker, reinforcing the Lazarus Group link.

South Korea's FIU requests blocking of two unregistered exchanges as crackdown widens

South Korea's Digital Asset Exchange Joint Consultative Body reported Eizis Ventures, TetherMax, and SuperTrust for allegedly operating unregistered virtual asset businesses. The Financial Intelligence Unit requested domestic access blocks for TetherMax and SuperTrust, while Eizis Ventures was excluded because it lacked a standalone website or app. Violators face up to five years in prison or a 50 million won fine, and the action brings the number of unregistered operators referred to investigators to 47.

OKX CEO Star calls for industry-wide security standards after Binance exploit

OKX founder and CEO Star urged crypto exchange leaders to stop treating security as a competitive battleground and instead build shared standards and a coordinated response mechanism. He noted that no system is absolutely secure and questioned whether Binance's incident stemmed from private key leakage or weaknesses in access control and wallet management. Star proposed that verified inter-exchange transfers process in real time, while large withdrawals to unknown addresses and smart contract permission grants face extra verification and security delays.

Ballet founder Bobby Lee: Stolen Bitcoin likely unrecoverable, but market has matured

Ballet wallet founder Bobby Lee told Bloomberg TV that Bitcoin stolen in the Binance hack is likely gone for good, while stablecoins have a realistic chance of recovery through freezes. He noted Bitcoin fell less than 1% to $78,269 during Friday's Asian trading session, arguing that crypto has matured enough to absorb losses of $1 billion, $2 billion, or even $5 billion without catastrophe. Lee stressed that freezing differs from recovery, and Binance must still formally claim frozen assets through law enforcement.
