Binance Details Four-Month Path From Tainted Developer Install to $6.34 Billion Drain

In its initial report on the Oct. 29 theft, the exchange describes a months-long campaign that ended with a stolen deployment token and an Ethereum EIP-7702 trick on an MPC hot wallet. Binance published its initial report on how attackers took about $6.34 billion in digital assets on Oct. 29, saying the intrusion began in June with a tampered software install and ran through a fake job interview in September. According to Binance, a wallet DevOps engineer downloaded a tampered Homebrew installation in June while searching for an AI coding tool.
