UPDATE: Binance estimated the total impact of the hack at around $6.3 billion, with roughly $3 billion frozen onchain so far via partners. It said it found no evidence of any wallet private key leak and will cover all user losses.
The exchange said its preliminary investigation suggests that the hack may involve a compromised DevOps engineer's laptop, which allowed an attacker to access a service container and submit unauthorized withdrawal transactions.
