# Binance Faces $4.7 Billion in Withdrawals After Major Hack#
Binance has seen approximately $4.72 billion in net withdrawals since restoring withdrawal services following a major cyberattack. The exchange temporarily suspended withdrawals for around 48 hours after hackers linked to North Korea attacked its systems.
According to Binance, the withdrawals represent about 2.8% of its total platform assets. The company says customer withdrawals are now slowing down and deposits have also resumed.
The FBI identified the North Korean hacking group TraderTraitor as responsible for the attack. Binance says it will cover the financial losses using its own funds and security reserves.
The incident has raised concerns about crypto exchange security and institutional investor confidence. Bitcoin has also shown signs of recovery after recent market pressure.
**Key Lesson:** Investors should prioritize security, diversify their holdings, and consider keeping long-term crypto assets in secure personal wallets.
