00:04If you were watching the cryptocurrency price closely last night, your heart must have been racing.
00:08Because Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, is in trouble.
00:12Bitcoin then continued to decline, falling as low as $77,646.
00:16It hit a six-week low.
00:18Data shows that within 24 hours, the total amount of money liquidated across the entire network surged to a huge amount.
00:23Approximately US$1.57 billion
00:25More than 180,000 traders were forced to liquidate their positions.
00:28Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization
00:32It just fell below the psychological threshold of $80,000 a few days ago.
00:35The decline is now widening, with a drop of over 4% in the last 24 hours.
00:39Ethereum also fell by nearly 5%.
00:41Binance's own platform token, BNB, fared even worse, plummeting by over 8% in a single day.
00:47Wow, what on earth happened?
00:49That time was around 4 a.m. on Friday.
00:51Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange
00:54Hot wallets on multiple blockchains
00:57This refers to a hot wallet that is always connected to the internet, allowing users to deposit and withdraw funds at any time.
01:01A sudden and unusual outflow of funds
01:03The money was stolen
01:05Binance itself estimated...
01:07The total impact of this incident amounted to a staggering $6.3 billion.
01:11Equivalent to approximately 26.5 billion Malaysian Ringgit
01:14This is the largest cryptocurrency exchange hacking case in history.
01:19Preliminary investigations show...
01:21The problem may be that one of the engineers' laptops was hacked.
01:26The hacker used this computer to access the service system.
01:29Then submit unauthorized withdrawal transactions.
01:33Some analysts say...
01:34The hacker didn't directly steal the key or private key.
01:37Instead, it induced the wallet to sign up for approximately 50 authorizations.
01:40Then in just over three minutes
01:42Sweep up over 160,000 Ether and 63 other tokens in one go
01:47in other words
01:48It's not a head-on breakthrough.
01:50Instead, someone tricked their way into obtaining the pass.
01:52Walk directly in through the main gate.
01:54What happens after the money is moved?
01:56What followed was a race against time to intercept them.
01:59The first to take action were several stablecoin issuers who froze funds.
02:04Emergency transfer of funds
02:05So all parties combined
02:06Approximately $3 billion has already been frozen on the blockchain.
02:09Nearly half of the $6.3 billion that was siphoned off
02:13So why are they able to freeze?
02:15Because what's behind stablecoins?
02:16Issuing company
02:18Just like a bank can freeze an account.
02:20As long as the money is still in their system
02:22A single instruction can lock up funds.
02:26So the $3.3 billion that was not frozen
02:29Where are you now?
02:30On-chain data shows that the funds were transferred.
02:3318,270 Bitcoins
02:35Valued at approximately $1.4 billion
02:37It remains untouched in the hacker's wallet.
02:40There are also approximately 370,000 Ethereum.
02:43Scattered across multiple addresses
02:45In other words, the money hasn't been laundered yet.
02:47But no one could stop them.
02:49Even more shocking is
02:51Two blockchain intelligence companies also pointed out
02:54This attack was most likely carried out by a top-tier hacking group supported by North Korea.
02:59Trader Trader's actions
03:01So what about this organization?
03:02It has gained notoriety due to its persistent threat.
03:04The analysis mentioned that the hacker within 20 minutes
03:07Crossing Ethereum
03:08Bitcoin
03:09Tron
03:10Solana, etc.
03:11Approximately 10 chains were attacked simultaneously.
03:14What's the explanation?
03:14With the second agreement in 2025
03:16The case of the stolen $1.5 billion worth of white currency is highly similar.
03:19This is not a temporary uprising
03:21Instead, it was an action that was already difficult to implement.
03:23And of course, what about North Korea?
03:25There has been no response yet.
03:25This accusation has not yet been officially confirmed.
03:29What I'm most concerned about now is...
03:31The most frequently asked question is
03:33Do you want that money back?
03:35What about Binance?
03:36It has been promised that emergency reserve funds will be used.
03:39Bear all losses
03:40Approximately $1.2 billion
03:42However, 1.2 billion is needed to fill a hole of 6.3 billion.
03:45Clearly not enough
03:45So the rest still depends on the company.
03:47From your own balance sheet
03:49Let's see if we can hold on.
03:50What does Binance say?
03:51Top-ups are currently unaffected.
03:53Withdrawal
03:54After the security check is completed
03:57It will recover in about 45 hours.
03:59What happened next?
04:00An updated version will be released later.
04:03This reserve certificate
04:04But what the market is really afraid of now is...
04:06It's not a question of whether we can afford to pay this time.
04:08Rather, their confidence was shaken.
04:11What will happen next?
