The U.S. Secret Service said on November 2 that its investigation into the theft of more than $6 billion from Binance is ongoing. On the afternoon of the incident, investigators worked with industry partners within minutes to identify and freeze a significant portion of the stolen cryptocurrency. The FBI and other agencies remain involved, and the list of addresses involved has been made public.
Changpeng Zhao later reposted a message thanking the Secret Service and its partner agencies, saying they acted quickly and helped contain the risk of spillover. Later that day, Gate said it had identified and frozen two accounts linked to the Binance attackers. The information has been referred for due diligence, and Gate will cooperate with law enforcement. Earlier on-chain monitoring showed that about $250,000 had been deposited into Gate from related addresses over the previous 12 hours.
Binance had reiterated that the company would bear the financial losses caused by the theft and would not pass them on to users. Withdrawals on 15 networks in the first phase resumed on November 1, with replenishment about 95% complete. Full reserves of major cryptocurrencies had already been verifiable on the Proof of Reserves page. Recovery and freezing efforts are ongoing, and the rollout of subsequent phases will be announced according to the progress of security checks. Before withdrawing, users should carefully verify the address and network, and beware of fake “compensation” screenshots and phishing links.
