I wanted to buy a VPN so I needed some crypto. Decided to make an account on Binance, three days ago.

- They wouldn’t accept my email+binance@provider.com address;

- They wanted to verify my ID and told me I’d take 10 days;

- I decided to go on another exchange and finished everything up in like 5 minutes;

- Binance has been spamming me since to complete my verification, with no ‘unsubscribe’ button.

How the hell did people hold their life savings in this dump?

Article says $100M. Why does the title here say $600M?

$100M crypto thefts are like every other Thursday, right?

$100M has been siphoned off to other chains before binance could pause the chain. Those funds are lost. 500M can be recovered.

Whew! Imagine how bad it could’ve been if it were decentralized.

I left binance and staked my crypto instead. Binance customer service does not exist and their website and app are broken.

I sold my crypto, there is no point of yet an another alt coin.

This seems to be common issue with crypto exchanges. Coinbase support is non-existent too.

what a huge hack, especially given that prices are already down 60% or more

How do you know it is not cz who orchestrated the hack?
