Why the conviction moved

  • Nov 9
    Strengthened +1

    After the $6.3 billion theft, Binance's CFO is departing and about $3.1 billion of stolen funds is still unrecovered. A finance-chief exit right after a large custodial loss gives analysts more reason to test the exchange's reserve and liability claims.

  • Nov 8
    Strengthened +2

    Coin Metrics has changed how it counts Binance balances, which complicates the exchange-flow signal traders watch. Third-party data on Binance's on-chain holdings keeps being revised after the theft, so outside verification of the exchange's balances remains in flux.
