Binance says it will cover all losses from the hack, with user funds safe.

Its post at 01:36 UTC Oct 30 says all deposits and withdrawals are temporarily suspended while it runs security checks, freezes funds and works with law enforcement, with a full post-mortem to follow. That repeats its 00:13 UTC statement pledging coverage.

That followed trackers putting the multi-chain outflow near $5.6B, including about $1.45B BTC, $875M ETH, $1.57B USDT and $823M USDC, per WatcherGuru.

Binance put verified frozen funds at around $3B at 00:52 UTC, up from $2.54B at 23:22 UTC Oct 29, with Tether, Circle and others freezing assets.

BNB traded about $700.6 on Binance spot, down about 6.8% in 24h.
