Binance says a fake recruitment process and compromised internal AI tooling helped attackers reach its wallet-signing systems, The Block reports. The exchange says it has frozen or intercepted about $2.85 billion and replenished 98% of impacted assets. It has rebuilt affected systems and is commissioning an independent cybersecurity review. Withdrawals resumed in further phases on November 3; the report does not describe a complete reopening. These are Binance's initial findings and recovery claims.

Counter view: Limitation: These are the exchange's initial findings and recovery claims; withdrawals are reopening in phases.
Open the storyBinance customers withdrew a net $4.72 billion after withdrawals reopened, Reuters reports, citing the exchange. Binance puts that at about 2.8% of platform assets and says withdrawal volumes are stabilising. Dollar cash withdrawals returned on Monday, but most cryptocurrencies remained partly restricted. The report advances the reopening story with a larger outflow tally and another access milestone; analysts still warn that the security breach could curb institutional appetite for crypto.
Binance customers withdrew a net $4.72 billion after withdrawals reopened, Reuters reports, citing the exchange. Binance puts that at about 2.8% of platform assets and says withdrawal volumes are stabilising. Dollar cash withdrawals returned on Monday, but most cryptocurrencies remained partly restricted. The report advances the reopening story with a larger outflow tally and another access milestone; analysts still warn that the security breach could curb institutional appetite for crypto.
Counter view: Limitation: stabilising withdrawal volumes do not establish full access restoration or eliminate institutional security concerns.
Open the storyBinance says withdrawals exceeded deposits by about $3.64 billion in the first nine and a half hours after reopening, The Block reports. The exchange says volumes eased after an initial spike. That flow measure is separate from the theft loss and does not establish that every withdrawal route is available. The report also cites broader outflows tracked by DefiLlama. Binance expects an updated reserves report on Monday; completion remains pending.

Counter view: Limitation: withdrawal access remains incomplete, and the updated reserves report is still projected.
Open the storyBrazil’s Mercado Bitcoin paused deposits and withdrawals after a security incident involving approximately $46.3 million, according to Arkham data cited by The Block. The exchange says customers were unaffected and no data breach occurred. Tether says it froze more than 4.5 million USDT linked to the incident.
Binance says users of 10 listed tokens can now verify 1:1 reserve backing. It reports about 95% of affected assets replenished, with the remaining 5% in less-liquid tokens. More withdrawal networks are expected Tuesday; another reserves snapshot is planned Wednesday. These remain separate recovery milestones.
Bitcoin withdrawals have resumed on Binance, Reuters reports, while other assets will follow in phases. Binance says company-funded replacement purchases have covered 95% of the $6.3 billion stolen; the remaining 5% involves less-liquid tokens that may take longer to source. Restored bitcoin access is a step beyond the earlier restart plan, but it does not establish that all withdrawals are available.
Binance says it has replenished approximately 90% of the assets affected by the theft, up from about 80% in its previous update. The exchange says purchases of less-liquid tokens continue, using its own funds and portions of two protection funds. Withdrawals are still expected to resume on Sunday. A new reserves snapshot has been taken, but the complete verification proof is expected on Tuesday. Replenishment and the planned restart remain distinct from recovering stolen funds.
The FBI attributes the theft of more than $6 billion USD from Binance to North Korea’s TraderTraitor actors. In its October 31 alert, the bureau says investigators observed stolen assets being converted primarily into ETH and expect further laundering through DeFi and instant swaps. It urges crypto infrastructure providers to block transactions linked to the listed addresses. The alert concerns the October 29 theft.
Binance says it will cover all losses from the hack, with roughly $3 billion in affected assets frozen, AP reports. Withdrawals remain suspended; the exchange expects them to resume within a day or two. TRM estimates approximately USD 6.36 billion left Binance wallets and attributes the attack to North Korea’s TraderTraitor unit with high confidence. Binance has not confirmed the attackers’ identity. Its investigation has uncovered additional breach points beyond the initially suspected compromised laptop.
Binance says it has set aside more than $6.34B in company funds after the hot-wallet theft, including $5B in the stolen token types. Its October 30 update says purchases of the remaining assets continue and withdrawals remain suspended. The exchange targets a phased restart subject to security checks and plans Proof of Reserves results by Monday 2026-11-02. These are commitments and targets, not confirmed restoration or recovery.
Next Technology Holding has authorized selling or pledging its approximately 5,833 Bitcoin to reduce risk and improve liquidity. The company says the decision followed its review of the Binance incident and broader custody concerns, including potential quantum-computing threats. It says none of its Bitcoin is held through Binance. The CEO will determine transaction terms; the authorization does not guarantee that a sale or financing will occur.
Bitcoin Core disclosed a medium-severity vulnerability that could let a connected malicious peer crash a node on Windows, macOS or BSD by exhausting its memory. Linux users are unaffected by this issue. Fixes were released in versions 29.5, 30.4, 31.2 and 32.1. The advisory, published October 28, explains that TCP urgent data could bypass a limit on queued data. The issue was identified through Project Loupe’s automated scan and validated before reaching the security team.
Dominic Frisby favours oil and oil stocks, arguing supply disruptions could push oil to $150 and then $200 a barrel; he gives no firm deadline. In this Kitco NEWS interview, he targets Bitcoin at $200,000 in the next cycle, roughly 1,000 days away, and gold at $7,000–$10,000 by decade-end. He expects gold’s consolidation to continue near term. His broader argument is that measuring wealth in gold reveals purchasing-power losses hidden by currency totals, while higher borrowing costs squeeze households and governments.
Benjamin Cowen argues Bitcoin’s decline fits earlier midterm-year cycles, rather than being explained solely by the exchange hack. He focuses on weekly closes below 83K and the bull-market support band. He outlines two possibilities: a fast capitulation, or a bounce from the band followed by another decline. Cowen acknowledges that conventional technical signals look more bullish than his macro view. These are conditional comparisons, with no complete current trade proposal.
Coin Bureau’s Guy explains the suspected path into Binance’s hot wallets and how token issuers froze part of the stolen assets. He distinguishes those freezes from full recovery and reports Binance’s promise to cover user losses. His October 30 commentary also describes Bitcoin’s break below $80K and subsequent rebound. The attack’s authorization mechanism and attribution remained unresolved; his possible recovery scenario is conditional, with no complete trade proposal.
