Seems completely due to Binance tomfoolery

What a coincidence. When this happened a while ago that is the coin the hackers bought.

why oh why did i load up on cardano at over a dollar

with all the MMA fighters repping Dash surprised there isnt a daily fantasy or betting side that would use it.

The industry could really use some really nice decentralized exchanges.
Waves sucks. They have been at it for a while. I used to be happy about it. I am disappointed.

Yea I was (still am) hoping FairX/XLM could provide that but am less confident in it

Also what a ride with WTC, lol. Some days I feel like it doesn't even matter if this all goes to zero, this ride is so damn entertaining

it starts with an "f"

anyone here bought tezos from way back when? hows that project coming along?

Filanthropy?

easiest 2x of my life. woke up, saw via was up 200%. sold. waiting to rebuy at 25k sat

idk how people are still holding waltonchain btw

you can't lose money if you don't sell

the **** at ontologie price on binance, i m supposed to get 1K token for free soon from subscribing to their newletter and when i see it was 3$ ... some people will have a bad awakening soon if they buy that high

rofl i had the airdrop in my neon without knowing and just sold for 2K on binance, something that i was expecting to be worth 1 to 10 cents per token when it hit the market.

two nights ago my Binance acct was holding some XMR. While i was not logged in, the acct market sold the XMR and bought VIA. With 3-fa on the acct, there were no withdrawals. When i woke up, the VIA trades were rolled back and i had BTC in the acct.

Did you use binance api for something ?

nope

In that case Binance's official stance is that you were phished, someone logged into your account and enabled the API.

Awesome that Binance handled it so well for you. BULLISH!!

fished with 2FA feel like a weird explanation, unless they can determinate the seed of your authentificator from one connexion.

i had 2-fa on the login so i dont buy that explanation at the moment.

it definitely could have turned out worse. and the hacker made the trade at the perfect time.

It looks like it works like this:
You enter email + pass on spoof site, scammers enter that on real binance.
You enter 2FA code on spoof site, scammers enter that on real binance.
Once they are in they set up an API that let's them make trades for you.



In the case of this screenshot it looks like the person got scammed by googling "binance" and getting tricked by one of the spoofed websites which can show up high on google because of ad promoting done by the scammers. Avoidable by always navigating to exchanges from a bookmark. Unless a hacker changes your bookmarks then or you have some sort of malware that redirects you... but that's significantly harder to do than tricking people to click a link.

It would be nice if these exchanges added some form of 3FA, maybe geolocation/email verification when you log in from a strange place.

Makes sense

Kudos to binance for dealing with it super well so far. They ll lose some money in the process when people that got fished would be ****ed in this situation on most exchanges.
They ll have to secure the api activation to avoid that situation in the future.
Still some really good job dodging bullets so far

Holy **** this is crazy actually. Need to log into my binance to check out my accounts.

****ing 3fa and still got hacked how the ****?

And +1 to binance looking out for its users so far on this one.

Almost got phished by MyEtherWallet. There is some site out there called Myethrwallet or some variation of that. I caught it before I entered any info. So what I do is I go to twitter and find the blue checkmark and go to their website that way. Also do this for Binance.
