THORChain’s RUNE jumps 13% after Binance’s record $6.3B hack

North Korean hackers previously used THORChain to move funds stolen from Bybit and Bitget, prompting calls for the protocol to intervene. THORChain’s RUNE token rose more than 13% on Friday after Binance confirmed a $6.3 billion hack. RUNE climbed to $0.67 at the time of writing from a local low of $0.59 at 12:20 a.m. UTC, according to TradingView data . Onchain investigator ZachXBT reported Friday that funds stolen from Binance and September’s Bitget hack had passed through THORChain before being combined at the same Ethereum address. ZachXBT said the Bitget attack had been attributed to North Korea-linked TraderTraitor.
