Binance a déclaré que des attaquants avaient dérobé 6,3 milliards de dollars la semaine dernière après avoir utilisé de faux entretiens de recrutement pour convaincre un ingénieur de télécharger un code malveillant. Le FBI a attribué samedi le plus grand vol jamais recensé à TraderTraitor, un groupe de pirates lié à la Corée du Nord. Les attaquants ont utilisé un ordinateur portable compromis et un outil d'IA de Binance pour accéder aux ordinateurs portables d'autres ingénieurs. Binance a déclaré que la plateforme d'échange avait reconstruit ses systèmes de portefeuilles et ses outils d'IA, réservé des fonds suffisants pour couvrir les pertes des clients et rétabli les retraits.

Binance a déclaré mardi qu'un faux processus de recrutement avait aidé des attaquants à dérober 6,34 milliards de dollars le 29 octobre, après cinq mois de préparation. Binance a indiqué qu'environ 2,85 milliards de dollars d'actifs volés avaient été gelés ou interceptés. L'entreprise a remplacé 98 % des jetons concernés avec ses propres fonds, les achats sur le marché libre couvrant le reste, a-t-elle précisé. Le FBI a attribué l'attaque à la Corée du Nord, mais Binance n'est pas allée jusqu'à formuler sa propre attribution. La Corée du Nord a rejeté l'accusation lundi.

Binance a publié mardi une enquête décrivant une attaque qui a duré plusieurs mois et s'est achevée par le vol d'environ 6,3 milliards de dollars d'actifs numériques le 29 octobre.

Binance a déclaré que 2,85 milliards de dollars avaient été gelés ou interceptés et s'est engagé à couvrir les pertes sans les faire supporter aux clients.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung called Tuesday for the appointment of a senior cybersecurity official, citing the $6.3 billion Binance hack. The Korea Times reported that Lee wanted to establish a government body empowered to coordinate cybersecurity across public agencies and private companies.

The government has not announced a timeline for establishing the proposed body.

Binance a déclaré que des attaquants avaient utilisé de faux entretiens d’embauche, des logiciels malveillants et des outils d’IA internes compromis pour dérober 6,3 milliards de dollars en cryptomonnaies. Le co-PDG Richard Teng a indiqué que les attaquants avaient préparé pendant des mois l’attaque du 29 octobre, rejetant l’idée que l’ordinateur portable d’un seul employé ait été l’unique point de défaillance. Teng a déclaré que Binance avait reconstitué 98 % des 6,34 milliards de dollars d’actifs concernés et continuait d’acheter les actifs moins liquides. Binance a temporairement limité certains retraits et promis de couvrir toutes les pertes des clients. Teng a indiqué que Binance avait reconstruit le système de portefeuilles concerné et l’outil d’IA interne, et organisait un examen indépendant.

Amazon, Tesla, and SpaceX have opposed the tokenized stock platform developed by cryptocurrency exchange OKX and Intercontinental Exchange, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Six new objections made public bring the total to 56 companies. A tally shows that 49 of the 62 companies initially selected for listing have opposed the project, or about 79%. Companies that received written notification on October 4 reportedly have until November 3 to object, but each company's deadline depends on when it received the notification. Andrew Cuomo, co-chair of OKXICE, said many companies wanted to observe the market before participating, without specifying a launch date.

Le Centre national britannique de cybersécurité (NCSC) a averti mardi qu'une attaque par rançongiciel dopée à l'intelligence artificielle contre des infrastructures nationales critiques était très probable d'ici 2028. Le directeur général du NCSC, Richard Horne, a déclaré que l'IA permettrait aux attaquants de découvrir et d'exploiter des vulnérabilités anciennes à une échelle sans précédent. La semaine dernière, le gouvernement a annoncé 60 millions de livres sterling pour la première phase d'un bouclier national de cybersécurité, ainsi que 70 millions de livres sterling pour la création d'un centre consacré aux vulnérabilités des infrastructures critiques. Toutefois, une étude de l'université de Cambridge publiée en mai a conclu que la plupart des cybercriminels utilisaient l'IA pour le spam et l'hameçonnage plutôt que pour des attaques sophistiquées.

Tron founder Justin Sun said Tuesday that he had filed a motion for sanctions against World Liberty Financial over its alleged delay in disclosing his Emirati citizenship. Sun claims the Trump-linked crypto company concealed this information for several months during their dispute in order to challenge federal jurisdiction. Sun sued World Liberty in April, accusing it of fraud and illegally freezing his tokens. World Liberty countersued in May, accusing Sun of conducting an “unfounded publicity stunt.” Sun said he intended to refile his lawsuit in a California state court once the motion for sanctions had been decided.

Open Standard, la société à l'origine d'OUSD, percevra ces frais. Un document distinct décrit une offre permettant aux partenaires d'obtenir une participation au capital du projet en fonction de leurs avoirs en OUSD et des flux associés. Le pool de participation au capital exige que les partenaires détiennent au moins 50 millions de dollars et plafonne la participation de chaque partenaire à 5 % après attribution de tous les bons de souscription acquis.

Le projet pilote EnsembleTX de Hong Kong permet désormais aux banques participantes de régler à toute heure des transactions sur des dépôts tokenisés au moyen de monnaie de banque centrale tokenisée. L'Autorité monétaire de Hong Kong a annoncé cette évolution le 2 novembre. Douze banques et 20 pionniers du secteur participent au projet pilote. Ce changement étend les possibilités de règlement en espèces pour les activités de trésorerie des entreprises et les fonds tokenisés, mais ne signifie pas que tous les fonds peuvent être négociés en continu. L'Autorité monétaire de Hong Kong a indiqué que des essais portant sur des stablecoins réglementés commenceraient bientôt dans le cadre d'une initiative distincte.

Binance said Tuesday that hackers had spent months preparing for last week's $6.3 billion heist. Binance described a fake recruitment process that compromised an engineer's work computer, before the hackers used an internal artificial intelligence tool to access wallet systems.

Binance pledged to cover customers' losses and said 98% of the affected tokens had already been replenished.

Bitcoin gained 0.7% on Tuesday as markets awaited clues following the U.S. midterm elections. TradingView data showed BTC/USD hovering around $77,000, above Friday’s local lows near $76,300. The Kobeissi Letter estimated that markets were anticipating two years of political gridlock.

Justin Sun said his lawyers had asked a U.S. federal court to sanction World Liberty Financial (WLFI) and WLFI’s lawyers. The motion alleges that WLFI waited several months after the proceedings began before disclosing its UAE citizenship. WLFI revised its ownership chain to include 22 people and argued that the federal court lacked jurisdiction. Sun said he had invested a total of $45 million in WLFI tokens and would refile his complaint in a California state court after the sanctions ruling.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on Tuesday authorized U.S. platforms to offer perpetual futures contracts tied to individual stocks for the first time. CFTC Chair Michael Selig said the CFTC and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would jointly oversee these contracts. Perpetual futures contracts have no expiration date and allow traders to speculate on the price of assets without directly owning them. Selig said this expansion would give participants in U.S. markets access to risk-management and price-discovery tools, in accordance with applicable law.

U.S.-listed Bitcoin funds saw $1.04 billion in net outflows on Friday and Monday, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Binance’s record hack and uncertainty surrounding the U.S. midterm elections continued to weigh on sentiment. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust accounted for $405 million of Monday’s withdrawals. Binance said it had replenished about 95% of the assets affected by the $6.3 billion hack and had resumed withdrawals in stages. A Democratic victory in both chambers of Congress could hinder the passage of new crypto-friendly laws, although Re7 Research said the election could dispel uncertainty and revive risk appetite.

Citi is promoting spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs to its wealthy clients, despite about $1 billion in outflows from U.S. Bitcoin ETFs over the past two trading sessions.

Citi said in August that it would begin holding bitcoins for institutional clients through Custody+ later this year. Citi did not confirm Sigel’s remarks that the service was due to launch last week.
