XRP Ledger Gains Nearly 8,000 New Wallets in a Day Amid Reports of $6 Billion Binance Hack

The XRP Ledger recorded nearly 8,000 new wallet addresses within a 24-hour period, Bitcoin.com News reported. The surge came as reports circulated of a $6 billion hack targeting Binance, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges by trading volume. The report did not specify how the alleged Binance breach occurred or whether the exchange had publicly confirmed the incident. It also did not detail which wallets or user funds were reportedly affected. As a result, the scale and nature of the hack remain unclear beyond the figure cited.
