Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao shared the update on Twitter today, noting that the Curve Finance hacker sent the assets to Binance using different techniques to bypass the exchange’s security. However, the company identified the transactions and froze the assets.
Binance to Return Funds to Curve Finance Users
According to CZ, Binance will return the recovered $450,000 to the victims. The exchange is currently working with law enforcement to make that happen.
Binance froze/recovered $450k of the Curve stolen funds, representing 83%+ of the hack. We are working with LE to return the funds to the users. The hacker kept on sending the funds to Binance in different ways, thinking we can’t catch it.
