Binance cifra en US$6,300 millones el impacto de un ciberataque y bloquea activos
La plataforma de criptomonedas investiga si los atacantes comprometieron la computadora de un ingeniero de operaciones y asegura que cubrirá todas las pérdidas.
Binance precisa que, hasta el momento, no ha encontrado pruebas de una filtración de las claves privadas de sus monederos digitales y anuncia que publicará un informe técnico detallado cuando concluya la investigación.
Además, asegura que cubrirá todas las pérdidas mediante un fondo de protección de usuarios y recursos propios.
Investigation update: Our initial investigation suggested that the security incident may have involved a compromised laptop, however our subsequent investigation has uncovered additional points of breach. This was a complex attack, and we are doing all we can in coordination with law enforcement to resolve it. We are still gathering the facts, and will share more directly as we have them. Binance will cover all losses from the SAFU fund and the company’s funds. User funds are safe. We are still on track towards the expected timeline to resume the withdrawal service in 45 hours. Deposits remain unaffected. The outflows ceased when we paused withdrawal service earlier. We are still working with partners to freeze many of the impacted assets, and have frozen around $3 billion thus far. We will continue to provide further updates through official Binance channels as more verified information becomes available.
