$BTC $ETH
Binance was robbed of $6.3 billion—the root cause was that its signing authority was compromised. 🚨
The hackers started on the XRP chain and emptied nine chains in 55 minutes. On Ethereum, they slipped dozens of sequential authorizations into legitimate withdrawals. Three minutes later, they swept away more than $2.5 billion.
🚨
How the funds were frozen: Stablecoin issuers reacted quickly, freezing $3 billion within an hour. But the hackers had already converted more than $400 million to cash and put up $60 million as collateral. In the end, they escaped with $3.3 billion in Bitcoin and Ethereum. 🚨
Where did the keys go? The private keys may never have been lost. The hackers may have gained access to the signing service. If the machine blindly signs without checking the contents, the vault can still be emptied. 🚨
Why did every line of defense fail? The signing machines were too blind. Wallets blindly trusted one another, and individual wallets held too much money. The hackers had a clear path, while the bank took two and a half hours to react. 🚨
This incident is a wake-up call for the industry: protecting private keys isn’t enough—you also have to
control the hand that signs. 🚨
