Odaily: CoinEx founder Haipo Yang stated that the Binance hack exposed at least three avoidable security vulnerabilities, and the problem lies in operational discipline rather than a lack of advanced technology. The vulnerabilities include the failure to isolate work and personal devices, a single credential being able to operate production services, and multi-party computation signers failing to independently verify transactions.
Binance said the incident on October 29 affected approximately $6.34 billion in assets in its hot wallet; as of October 31, 98% of the affected assets had been replenished using company funds. The FBI attributed the attack to the North Korean TraderTraitor group.
Binance has rebuilt the affected wallet system, replaced devices, revoked credentials, and strengthened risk controls for wallet services. CoinEx will also open withdrawals before December 22, 2026; Haipo Yang previously said that the security and compliance risks of operating an exchange have become harder to control.

Odaily reports: According to a case published by the Fusui County People's Court in Guangxi, in 2020, a couple surnamed Mo, both over seventy years old, were introduced by an acquaintance to participate in an overseas virtual currency mining machine wealth management project. They initially invested 4,200 yuan and recovered their principal, then subsequently invested over 60,000 yuan. In December 2020, the platform shut down and the couple was unable to withdraw funds. In early 2026, the couple sued the investment referrer and the actual operator, demanding the return of all investment funds plus interest. The court held that the virtual currency investment in question violated financial regulatory provisions and contravened public order and good morals, rendering the entrusted wealth management contract invalid; the losses stemmed primarily from the illegal nature of virtual currency transactions and platform risks rather than the personal conduct of the trustee, and therefore dismissed the plaintiffs' claims. The second-instance trial upheld the original judgment, which has now taken effect.
