claude code just traced the $5.57 billion binance hack to an address inside binance and a relay node in pyongyang. this wasn't a hack. and binance hasn't said one word about it yesterday i posted how grok bot pulled my $107,000 out of binance 12 minutes before the freeze. 125k people saw it and everyone asked the same thing. who did this binance won't tell you. so at 1am i gave claude code one prompt and the public on-chain data, with no api keys and no insider access 1:04am. claude pulls 47,832 transactions across eth, btc and tron and finds 47 wallets in one attacker cluster 1:11am. the terminal goes red. "match found" the wallet that paid the attacker's gas was funded 48 hours before the hack. first tornado cash, then one 0.001 eth test transaction from an address tagged binance internal deployer. binance's own deployer paid for the attacker's gas two days early 1:17am. claude replays the drain. binance 14 first, $2.13 billion. hot wallet 34 second, $780 million. then the reserve pools, in the exact order of binance's internal balance registry. that list isn't public. someone handed it over the drain also started 79 seconds before a scheduled key rotation, so whoever did this knew the schedule 1:24am. claude follows the exploit contract back to its source. three separate signals point to the same node in pyongyang bytecode matches the bybit hack at 98.4%. claude's attribution is lazarus group with 97.3% confidence so ask yourself why binance hasn't explained how north korea knew its internal registry and its key rotation schedule claude thinks someone inside gave lazarus the keys and the map, and lazarus walked in every claim is marked confirmed or inferred and comes with a tx hash. claude refused to name the insider what i did before sunrise: > sent the evidence package to FBI IC3 > flagged all 51 attacker wallets to the exchanges > 2 deposit addresses frozen by morning. $60 million that isn't making it to north korea my wife found me at 3am again. she looked at the red dot on the globe and asked if that was north korea. i said yes. she didn't go back to sleep either if your money is on an exchange, all it takes is one person on the inside the exact prompt that did all of this is in the comments. it's free. run it before the next one hits

If you guys are going to compete in the creator competition make sure you don’t get disqualified, read the terms and conditions of the competition Most importantly the last one offering inducement rebate or share of rewards , you can’t directly offer anyone anything by promoting the code. You can’t pay them to do it, offer them tokens or anything in exchange for using your promo code so on and so forth. just letting you guys know before you put a bunch of work into this next week or whatever and get disqualified / banned from referrals If you read the t&c fraudulent use of the referral program can lead to getting cut off from the ref program and even worse clawback of acquired funds. Probably a Similar situation like the trading competition where a lot of people are going to try and game the system and wreck their chances at some bands 🥀

Incredible footage of a suspected North Korean hacker posing as Japanese getting exposed after refusing to insult Kim Jong Un. Apparently, still one of the most effective ways to catch them.

The @CFTC proposed new regulations to establish a federal registration option for crypto exchanges that would bring to crypto markets the same time-tested safeguards that have protected American derivates markets from cyber and other risks for decades. Markets are best protected when regulated in the U.S. @SaraEisen @SquawkStreet

Very nice to see @walmart's OnePay (@onepay) add support for USDC. One step at a time in getting USDC lit up in retail financial apps globally.
If you get paid in stablecoins, you’ve probably had to run that money through an exchange before you could spend it. Now you can send USDC straight to OnePay, and it lands in the same Checking balance you already use for bills and sending money.

in the last 48 hours alone: - Binance $6.2 billion back - Polymarket hack - Chainalysis (the firm that top crypto organizations use to track crypto hackers) hack yet we'll still have people saying we got lucky when we start flashing the PNLs in a few months/years' time

Nice try, but what you’re citing is a savings clause. It keeps existing finance and sanctions law in force but it doesn’t erase the rest of the section. What you fail to understand about the Clarity Act is that it would classify Binance as a covered person because it is a digital asset service provider. No law stops every bad actor, but the Clarity Act would have given the people fighting them better tools and the ability to act faster. Your party voted no, and you have to own that. Thanks for playing, Amanda Fischer!
This is not true. Clarity requires stablecoin issuers to freeze per a court order. For exchanges, here’s the relevant language. Check out (1) below.
