They changed the title of the article since I commented. I am pleased that my speculation was mostly correct however.

^ archive link showing that the title used to be “Attacker gets away with up to 3$ billion from Binance.”

I mean its probably not a rug pull. Most likely its a coordinated state sponsored hacking group, like the Lazarus group, who would be my bet for the big winner of this.

I’m curious how much theyll walk away with in the end.

Seeing a few posts saying that some of the coins ended up in a wallet that is suspected to be tied to the Lazarus group.

I’ll be curious to see if thats just the real hacker trying to lose the trail or if its actually them.

I wonder how much they’ll manage to get converted to cash when all is said and done.

Good lord, 6b rn with only 2.5ish~ being frozen means whoever did this just kicked off the largest heist in human history.

If I were a gambler, which I’m not, since polymarket also got hacked, I’d put my money on it being Lazarus group who did this one. Kinda their whole M.O.

We won’t know for sure until later but damn I don’t know if I should be impressed or scared.
