🔓 @binance is restoring withdrawals in phases across selected assets and networks. Availability varies by asset-network pair, and temporary delays may occur. Check the withdrawal page before transferring funds.

🚨 The FBI attributes the @binance hack to North Korea’s TraderTraitor group and urges crypto service providers to block transactions linked to its published addresses. The request covers laundering routes, including DeFi and instant swaps.

🛡️ @binance says it has replaced 90% of stolen assets. The remaining tokens are less liquid. Withdrawals are still targeted for Nov. 1, and full cryptographic reserve verification is expected by Nov. 3. Replenishment does not mean the stolen funds were recovered.

📉 U.S. spot Bitcoin $BTC ETFs recorded $643.2M in net outflows on Oct. 30, ending four sessions of inflows. The completed tally includes all listed funds. This measures ETF flows, not losses from the exchange hack.

🏦 @tether reports $1.5B in Q3 operating profit and a $7.95B reserve surplus as of Sept. 30, up from $4.1B in June. Its new BDO attestation covers reserves at that date, not a full financial statement audit.

🛡️ @aave $AAVE is rolling back its market freeze in stages after the @binance hack. Borrow limits were cut before reopening. Selected assets remain unable to add new borrowing power as collateral, so this is not a full return to previous settings.

🏦 @binance says it has set aside over $6.34B of company funds to cover hack losses, separate from about $3B frozen. It already holds $5B in affected tokens and is buying the remainder through markets and OTC deals. Updated proof of reserves will follow.

🔐 @Trezor urges CryptoBilis buyers since March 2026 to move funds to a new wallet with a new recovery seed after a suspected Safe 5 implant report. Trezor has not examined the device and says no related fund losses have been reported.

🔎 TRM Labs attributes the @binance hack to North Korea’s TraderTraitor group with high confidence. Its analysis points to compromised hot-wallet signing infrastructure across ten chains. Binance has not published a final root cause.

🛡️ @aave $AAVE froze new supply and borrowing across its V3 and V4 markets after the @binance exploit. Withdrawals and repayments remain available. Horizon stayed open. The measure aims to block the attacker from using stolen assets as collateral.

🚨 Binance is investigating a suspected hack. The flagged wallet now holds over $5.7B. @tether and @circle's CEOs report freezing over $1.57B in $USDT and $800M in $USDC. @binance has not confirmed the total loss or cause.

🚨 @binance is investigating a possible security breach. @cz_binance says @tether froze about $971M in $USDT and @circle $823M in $USDC linked to the suspected incident. The total loss and cause remain unconfirmed.

🏦 @ICE_Markets and Trade[XYZ] agreed to build a US venue for perpetual futures using Hyperliquid infrastructure. ICE will operate the regulated market and clearing. Regulatory approvals are still required. No launch date has been announced.

🏦 @CurveFinance $CRV launched StableSwap on @StellarOrg $XLM, its first native deployment outside the EVM ecosystem. Users can create pools, swap assets and provide liquidity. FXSwap remains planned and will follow after its audit.

🛠️ @Uniswap $UNI launched TJAR, an open-source fee conversion tool live on seven chains. @RobinhoodApp already uses it to receive fees in $USDC and $USDG. Other apps can choose which token they receive and where it goes.

🏛️ @kucoincom is ending all services for users in Russia and Belarus, effective immediately. Affected users will receive individual deadlines to close positions and withdraw assets. KuCoin cites legal and regulatory requirements.
