🔎 ELLIPTIC UPDATES ESTIMATE OF ASSETS STOLEN FROM BINANCE
On November 7, analytics firm Elliptic updated its investigation into the October theft from Binance. According to its estimate as of 08:00 UTC, the attackers had converted the stolen tokens into approximately 2,300 BTC (about $175 million). The previous estimate, dated November 6, put the figure at approximately 1,650 BTC ($124 million). This is a development in an earlier incident, not a new attack.
Elliptic also estimates that assets worth approximately $3.13 billion remain at addresses linked to the theft. About $2.85 billion has been frozen or seized. Converting tokens into BTC does not mean they have been cashed out: the company believes that only a small portion has been moved into fiat currency.
