Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, may have lost half a billion dollars after a hack of its network.

The company temporarily suspended transactions and the transfer of funds after detecting an exploit between two blockchains, a method of digital theft that has been used recently in at least one other major hack.“The issue is contained now. Your funds are safe. We apologize for the inconvenience and will provide further updates accordingly,”
Binance’s CEO, Changpeng Zhao, said in a tweet.

Binance originally said that $100m to $110m in funds were taken. Since then, CNBC has reported the crypto company has lost $570m.

In a blogpost on Friday, Binance said it was working on locking down any areas of vulnerability. “First, we want to apologize to the community for the exploit that occurred. We own this,” the company wrote. “Thanks to the assistance of all the security experts, projects, and validators, the vast majority of the funds remain under control.”

Last year Binance said that it was time for global regulators to establish rules for crypto markets. The company acknowledged at the time that crypto platforms have an obligation to protect users and to implement processes to prevent financial crimes, along with the responsibility to work with regulators and policymakers to set standards to keep users safe.

Binance is just the latest crypto company to experience a targeted hack. In August Nomad, a service that allows users to send crypto tokens between different blockchains, was struck, with media reports saying it was taken for nearly $200m. Harmony, another transfer service, lost about $100m in a hack in June.

Do you think NNPC never knew of this , they basically kept quiet to appease Tompolo, Clark & the boys so as not to allow them start bombing oil facilities that may jeopardize economy of Nigeria.

With the above analysis what is your opinion?

Obedients won't like your analysis.

Only Angela Merkel fully knew the mindset of Putin, she put European economy above any Ukrainian interests.

ofuonyebi:
i have never seen people who love to deceive themselves like these people
no it is not 18 govs but 36 States sitting govs are jumping at your obi=tuary

Dont worry, when 2023 election is over and some of you start crying
i will ask you where are sitting govs ....may be Wike is the one u call 18-sitting govs....tufiakwa!

Mark my words- the rude shock that will hit obi & his followers will be the likes of which has never been seen.

#ENDSARS 2.0

Apt analysis....the biggest shocker of 2023 will come from Northern Nigeria.

I see the obi movement similar to PMBs extremist cult of regional followers but that did not translate into victory for him for 4 times as a presidential candidate. Peter Obis' s supporters are in erratic manner similar to Sai baba "hooligans". Peter Obi is deeply unpopular in some parts of Nigeria which his followers are foolishly blind about.
Kindly don't mention me as I don't have time.

Lol... PMB has set a stage for comedy of clowns & chaos come 2023. We're just in early October but the madness is reaching tipping point.

"I'm not bluffing"- Vladimir Putin, Remember those words

God bless Brig Gen Buba Murwa, officers & Men of NDLEA, the most potent security officer in this administration, all the rest are masquerades.

APC gave SW the perfect shot to present their standard bearer but Tinubu's selfishness and power drunk mentality hijacked everything, don't blame northern Nigeria for your misadventures come next year.

Just blame PMB

Why did it take soooo long for you to discover it and return it?, why was it first reported by the Nation newspaper( wholly owned by Tinubu)? , ...

APC have messed up big time, Amaechi or Osinbajo would made a better candidate but Tinubu's selfishness and greed leads... Kashim Shettima is tactically strategic in becoming de factor president.

TrafficBOOSTERS:


Year 2023 Election: Attention to All Aides of Every Presidential Candidates; Let Us Know Your Manifestos (Mandates: Vision and Mission Statements) for Nigerians right here on this political engagement thread:

https://www.nairaland.com/7357468/2023-attention-all-aides-presidency#117102761


With the way things are going on the internet of things; who do you think will win the 2023 presidential election ?

Our Concern is to engage All Presidential Candidates to Present their Manifestos Publicly on This Political Thread of Nairaland so that We all can see and understand their respective mission for the next 4 years.


This is the sanity we need to uphold.

Literarily; We need to know what these Presidential Candidates have in stock for us.






Many of Them Utilize Their Aides to Sponsor Political Posts to The Front page of Nairaland.

However; Not too much is being achieved as Alot of Nigerians are always on each other's neck as they HATEFULLY CAMPAIGN Against each other's Choice of Candidacy.




Hence; it is very important to do things very differently and rightly.

We are all Nigerians.


We all have been affected and We all will be affected if we vote in the wrong person into the presidential office come 2023.



Hence; We have created this thread to ensure that we come in peace with each other to ensure that we all see from All Political Aides of These Politicians or Directly from Them.


If they really mean well for Nigerians; then it should take them nothing to personally create an account on this National/Global Forum so that they address the masses literally.








We want to know:

1) Their Respective Visions;

2) Their Respective Mission Statements stating their Respective Action Plans and Steps To Fulfil Their Envisioned Missions.

3) Their Respective Solutions to The Five (5) Integral Forms of Poverty in Nigeria below:
i) The POVERTY of Poor Education,
ii) The POVERTY of Hunger and Starvation,
iii) The POVERTY of Epileptic Power Supply,
iv) The POVERTY of Poor Healthcare,
v) The POVERTY of Insecurity of Human Lives and Properties.









Let Our Voice Be Heard.



Please; Join This Movement without insulting any member of the platform.

I strongly support your movement.

It has become obviously clear that Mr Tinubu can't handle the pressures of the highest office in the land, his choice of shettima is a tactical strategy knowing fully well his running mate is a dangerous man that can sell even his own people for his own personal & selfish ambitions.

Isokiscool:
Nobody was expecting them to show up..... makinde is a bigot who is working for his brother Tinubu.Wike is a very terrible looser while ortom dey pity Wike but we all know he is already with Atiku

their eyes go clear

Ever since Tinubu nominated Kashim Shettima as his running mate, the party has been enveloped in circles of misfortunes.

Case closed, nothing will be heard of this case again.

The most lazy way of fighting inflation, just sit and keep increasing interest rates. No incentives, no palliatives.

In northern Nigeria its either PDP or APC, from all indications people are going for Atiku.

Kashim Shettima is a tribal fascist.

No southern PDP governor can stand before his people and market APC Muslim Muslim ticket.

Again I say the ball is the court of the Christian community and southern Nigeria...... Choose wisely before wailing.

Bode George should have said PDP is losing SW...

The most dangerous presidential ticket is of Tinubu & Shettima, Shettima has been the most vocal amongst all VP candidates giving people who don't know him a little inclination about how desperately overambitious he is. Nigerians must reject these ethno religious fascists.

God please protect our troops and guide them.

May God answer you.

SlavaUkraini:
God would not answer the prayers of

1.... The Notorious Drug Baron and Big thief that is still stealing from Lagos State Treasury even after leaving office

2.... The Founder of Boko Haram that has killed not only Christians but Muslims too.

3..... The Rubber Stamped House speaker that knows the truth about how the Nigerian state has failed but he choose to deceive Nigerians that all is well. While supporting the drug baron to continue from where Buhari stops.
