October 29, 2026: Binance security incident: Initial findings and response update.
On October 29, 2026, Binance suffered a serious and highly sophisticated security incident. This should not have happened, and we apologize for the concern, disruption, and uncertainty it caused our users, partners, and the industry as a whole.
Our primary responsibility is to protect users. Binance will bear the financial impact of the stolen funds, not our users. We have already reserved more than 100% of the funds needed to cover the losses. As of October 31, 2026, 98% of the affected token assets had been restored, as can be verified on our [Prueba de Reservas](https://www.binance.com/es-LA/proof-of-reserves) page. We are currently in the process of acquiring the remaining assets, which are less liquid.
