Binance returns to $2.3 billion net inflows after $6.3 billion security breach

Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, reported a return to net inflows of approximately $2.3 billion over the past 24 hours. The development came after the exchange began restoring customer access in the aftermath of a major security breach. Market tracking data indicated that the incident led to an estimated $6.3 billion loss, and marked what blockchain security experts are calling the most significant theft in the history of crypto assets. According to preliminary findings from Binance, the breach stemmed from a compromised laptop belonging to a DevOps engineer.
