Terrifying! It’s not just crypto—hackers are now using AI across the board to rob financial systems!! 🚨
First, take the recent Binance theft. The attackers first took over an infected computer, then used the company’s internal AI tools as a stepping stone to work their way into the wallet-signing system. What used to take a team months to pull off can now be done at scale with AI helping them find entry points, write malicious code, and impersonate others.
And this is no longer just a crypto issue. Traditional banks have also been hit one after another in a single week:
French banking group Crédit Mutuel Arkéa has confirmed it was attacked. More than $133 million was involved in the incident at its online banking subsidiary, Fortuneo, and some transfer services have yet to be restored.
Taiwan’s Bank SinoPac has also seen large-scale unauthorized transfers: 418 customers, 427 suspicious transactions, and NT$41.76 million transferred to the same account.
Neither bank has disclosed how the attacks were carried out, but the trend is already clear: AI is making hacker attacks faster and cheaper, and allowing them to cast a wider net at the same time. In the past, they focused on a handful of major institutions. Now they’re testing exchanges, online banks, and system providers one by one.
Binance’s decision to disclose all the details and cover all the losses itself is a warning to the entire industry: AI-powered attacks are already scaling up. The next target could be the bank you use.#黑客攻击 #币安 #银行 #ai安全
