Binance ties $6.3 billion hack to fake job interview and hot-wallet exploit

Binance says a $6.3 billion hack traced back to a fake job interview used to compromise employees and internal systems over several months. The North Korea-linked attackers then exploited the exchange's hot-wallet signing infrastructure via Ethereum's EIP-7702 mechanism. The scale and the hot-wallet vector matter to traders because it raises fresh questions about exchange custody security and could pressure BNB and broader market confidence.
