On the night of October 30, news emerged that cryptocurrency exchange Binance had been hacked and more than $6 billion stolen. As a result, traders lost $1.29 billion in long positions over 24 hours, while Bitcoin hit a monthly low, falling to $77,395.47 (-3.35%).
Expert Viktor Pershikov noted that hacks of this kind have a “delayed effect,” and the true scale of the “cash shortfall” will become clear only several months later. Meanwhile, BitOK founder Dmitry Machikhin believes the incident will have a positive impact on security as Russia prepares to launch regulated cryptocurrency trading.
