The screenshot says the exchange will be ready in less than 12 hours. But John Mcafee insists the exchange is hacked. https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/961662107786899456

No that's a lie . Binance is going through technical works, nothing critical has happened . And its not broke , don't worry

Just stop believing in anything McAfee says.
He is a full fledged shiller now..
Binance has posted on twitter and reddit about their maintenance and upgrades and believe me such things takes time. Lets just sit and wait till we get back to trade.
meanwhile, they were opening a window for people to cancel there orders. This would not be possible if it was hacked.

I think biance is fine, I truly believe that if there was an issue, they would alert the public. They have good business practices and are strong with their communication. I trust they will be just fine and continue with their growth shortly after reopening trading.

He said 'rumors' so It shouldn't be taken seriously but I wouldn't be surprised If that was the case, as he have contacts with Jihan Wu who may have people from inside Binance. With that being sad, It will take more then a hack to take Binance down, the trading volume is on billions and they are making millions daily, even If they got hacked, they could easily refund their users.

Nope, this is official statement about that it has not been hacked: https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/961647955965915136

Please read it. It seems fair for me. Maybe it's just a technical problem. No reason to be panicked right now.

I hope not, Binance is now one of the biggest exchange, if it was hacked, the prices of crypto will dump again

Mcaffee could be right. I have never seen a maintenance that happens without announcement to the users and why would it take about 12 hrs for an upgrade or maintenance. It is either Binance has been hacked or they detected a flaw in their system. We will know in due time

if we look at the argument there, it seems that no serious problems are happening and I suspect that the offical account mcafee la is being hacked.

the binance site has been overloaded because its users are getting more and the system should be upgraded. this is a reasonable problem, because if there is no maintenance and not repaired, then the binary site may go down.

It is not hacked, dont worry and do not believe everythins mcafee says ;)

John was misinformed and he has confirmed the same tweeting about about that to the binance tweet. Just make sure that you should not keep coins that are meant for long term hold at exchanges.

McAfee is not even claiming that they are hacked. He is just throwing the rumor out there, that there are screenshots being circulated (where?) which are possibly shopped, which may or may not indicate that binance was hacked. It's not even a statement, he's just saying something for having said something. I have no idea what his purpose is.

He loves the limelight and people talking about him? If there's one thing that can be said for sure about Mr McAfee it is that, he delights in attention.

Take a look at the official Binance response to McAfee and check out their BTC and ETH addresses. I'm sure now that it didn't been hacked. McAfee has become a FUD producer just to make a panic.

no hacking you can follow news from twitter.

https://twitter.com/binance_2017/status/961635473591435265

i think its false, and if you saw a tweet the below in their tweet like this
https://i.imgur.com/7mKhfMH.png

and take a look the official account of binance is https://twitter.com/binance_2017/
but if you take a look at the bottom that account is just a fake account https://twitter.com/blinance_2017 it contais small Letter of L
and that fake account already collected more than 3 ETH

Interesting opinion, news from twitter not the 100% information. But  i hope %1 exchange cant be hacked so easiely

mac didnt say binance was hacked. he was just trying to tell binance team that if its a planned schedule they would have announce it earlier not just when the problem erupted

I don't really care about what John McAfee said :)). He's delivering FUD to all other traders. LOL. He's received money to tweet like that, IMO. And it's not the only tweet that he tweet for money. I'm still waiting till the end of 2020 to see he eats his own dick on TV when Bitcoin price still doesn't reach to 1m$. LOL

Oh, is McAfee the only one who uses his twitter as a promotion platform???
My experience tells that at least 95% of celebrities does it, not only in crypto.
And don't worry about McAfee's d.ck, I'm sure his wife takes care of it. ::)

i think its hoax :o

I hope that this exchange will soon solve its problems and will continue to work. I have a big deposit there and I hope that everything will be all right ))

This is why we must support decentralized exchange,
Centralized exchange like binance or any other major exchange will be prone to attack.

Recent binance down might not necessary be an attack, but we must be prepared for such event :)

I believe that technical work is carried out on the Binance and soon the work will be restored. On Twitter, they show their wallet with a large sum of money and without movement.

I don't think this news has any sense at all.I have done some R&D just after i got this news and i found out that this is just a technical issue which can happen some time and will be resolved very soon.It is just a fake news to create panic in market as binance is one of the most popular trade exchange and could be a conspiracy against Binance as well.

I don't think it was hacked, i believe it was just rumors.

It is just an ordinary maintenance. All trading platforms do it even poloneix and bittrex. It is just  FUD and I think he is planning to accumulate more bitcoin and altcoins for their pump and dump session.

They weren't hacked. They said they went for an upgrade and would be back soon

Please we need some more people to repost that it's just maintenance, it isn't clear yet... ::)

What is wrong with you? there is no benefit of those kind of conversations for the ecosystem. stop making people panic for nothing. they are online and updating the status of the maintenance every hour. if they were hacked they would be already  disappeared.

Seems like was not hacked but why they keeping exchange without work already over 24 hours? Upgrade? Hope so. Because of binance crypto can fall down in new records :) for sure if it really hacked and accounts are broken that will be FATALITY  ;D I have too much money there to stay calm :D

No Hacked this exchange. Security team of this exchange is very Good.

Definitely not a hack. I don't think there's a well respected exchange would lie about such a lie if it happens. There's nothing to hide if it's an attack, as this would ruin their image and super negative from public relation point of view. John McAfee probably got nothing else to do in his life other than getting paid to tweet whatever he's told to.  :-X

McAffee is a big manipulater, don't trust this kind of people. Binance announced technical maintainance information earlier and now it's happening. It's a planned activity, not a hacking issue in my opinion.

They are just having some system upgrade so they can accept more accounts in their website,binance is the best exchange nowaways and it requires less fees than these major exchanges bittrex and poloniex,and binance's security has been always excellent.I dont think they are making this up they arent hacked like what McAfee said,he is just making this hack thing all by himself.

it is not true binance is a good market, do believe people say including mcafee cause that just negative isue it will recover in twelve days

no hack

The maintenance of Binance seems to have been announced before, not hacker attacks and scam as the news. Binance maintenance to avoid the occurrence of unfortunate events such as hackers attacked appropriated the entire property. And now Binance is back to normal, eliminating all previous rumors.

With each and every exchange there is possibility of hacks. It is our responsibility to keep it in a secure manner enabling the features available to decrease the chances of hacks. Binance today went on a scheduled maintenance, that too might have interpreted as hack. The media does such kind of work and I don't know what benefits them in spreading news in the opposite manner to the reality.

I would really take McAffee's words with a huge grain of salt.

But yeah, no hack.  This is where the magic of blockchain tech really shines.
It is an open source ledger so anyone can view the blockchain to make sure things are fine.

A logical explanation for this shutdown, is that there was a spike in trading activity that the servers could not handle.
I imagine it had to do with the small mini pump in prices we saw yesterday along with them listing 3 new coins in two days.

For me, I think it is fantastic that they shut it down to fix the problem and communicated with the community.

Other exchanges that have been having problems dealing with volume lately do no such thing *cough cough poloniex *cough cough hitbtc
They just let deposits and withdrawals hang in limbo, incorrect sell/buy orders be displayed, and server lag.
You need to realize that it is actually binance that is losing the most money by shutting down, and them doing so to fix a problem gains confidence.

Sell all coins just because it is hacked  ::) It is not hacked, even they are hacked, they probably lose very little amount of coins as they probably diversified the risk.

As I am writing these lines, I just connected to Binance and seem perfectly healthy... and still charging huge fees BTW. Just keep on FUDing, the exchange is there.

Let me share my version of what happened. Binance widely uses trading bots, which, for example, makes completely impossible to trade on spreads there. But even the best bot algorithm can't anticipate all cases, and my guess is that someone found Binance bots vulnerability.
Now Binance developers probably patching their bots. ::)

yeah the have postponed the ten hours delay to twelve i really dont know what have happened the main thing we should do is to stay calm and not spread bad news that will effect the market i am sure the management of the site will overcome the problem whatever it size is.

The headshot gif was pretty amusing. The reply from Binance was a pretty clear slap to the face of John Mcafee too.

He probably should keep his mouth shut in cases like this.


He is a large influence that is straight up ASSUMING things that could cause a small market crash lol

Sad...  Again FUD. Soon I will become FUD resistant and keep all my crypto even I will be not in loss,  but rather in negative position (owing money to somebody) :-). This Maccafy guy likes to be in the centre of crypto universe by spreading rumours. Be careful. I know that Binance wasn't hacked. Hope that soon we will have recovery.

MAcafee is right about saying "Planned outages are usually announced to a company's user base well in advance." I dont understand why didnt they warn users before? Because of that people panic. I hope binance will be on soon.

No, they did not. By the way, I like that Binans has chosen a fairly good time for upgrading and other work. I mean - for many who keep the coins and now in a panic do not know what to do with them and want to sell. Binance, so to speak, restrains them from stupid steps.

I think they was down due unplanned maintenance.. but we will understand very soon. If withdraws continue to be fast and flawless, then everything is OK. If they were hacked.. this will hit the whole market, because Binance is currently the best exchange.

I think No, that's a lie. Binance has posted on twitter and reddit about their upkeep and upgrades and believe me things like that take time.

If Binance is hacked too i feel like there is no safe exchange in the world LOL

Well, that turned out to be gossip and the exchange Binance was not attacked by hackers. In any case, thanks for the information. You never know what turns out to be not true, but what will be a sensation. Sometimes it is better to wait and not to visit the exchange, than to lose all your investments.

This is a very critical moment, not only for people who is holding funds at Binance, but for all the cryptoworld, since a hack of Binance in such a delicate moment would sent Bitcoin's price to hell.

Everytime you read "Mcafee said blablabla" this should cause doubt in your mind . Binance is very secure exchange , of course it doen't mean that it couldn't be hacked , but they wouldn't hide such information under the guise of tech works

thats probably what a lot of people said about mtgox before it went down =)

People are just speculating too much and too worrying about the hacking event of an exchange, maybe they just got traumatised by Mt.Gox while I'm here, even if the exchange is hacked it won't harm me because I always saving my assets in my own cold storage or paper wallet.
However, if this exchange turns out to be "really" hacked and getting closed down, there will always appear a new exchange just as you see, so many exchanges trying to compete with these.

That sucks but it looks mcafee's twitter gets another hacked again lol
rather than mcafee and i was believing in binance update. Binance has so many users on the platform and it may become real concern right now.

Please don't just believe by reading other sources news information. It's better to check the official site directly to avoid miss understanding. That fake news also worried me earlier  ;D

Of course not. Binance simply carries out the modernization of the system that will last some time. Do not panic.

Don't believe anyone knows for sure, though more so curious as to whatever sources said this was a hack.

if Binance was hacked, they would not have dared to show the world their blockchain wallets.

For those who are experienced in IT.. you would know that delay in system upgrades is not uncommon.

Especially for complex systems such as an exchange software. I rather they take their time than to rush and

be hacked later due to a human error.

For those guys who get worried when such a small delay occur, they are the ones who sell at the slightest

bad news and will never make the kind of 100x profits...be patient

Thank god. I am getting a "system maintenance" flag when I try to trade. They should be more clear, but glad to see it's nothing major.

Mcafee is really trying to be a relevant person in this game, i hope he stops with all these fud. Let the binance team do their job and i'm pretty sure no one will lose coins there, a big exchange will not jeopardize their reputation by making lies to the public.

Everyone was scared haha. It seems like there is nothing wrong with Binance right now. There are too many speculations when it comes to being hacked. That’s why ledger is so important  ;D

Binance is not hacked. All the rumors about the hacking of this exchange are a deception for the purpose of manipulating the market. This is another attempt to throw bitcoin to the bottom. Do not believe these rumors. I am sure that the exchange will soon begin to work after the maintenance.

A lot of services go on extended maintenances, i recognize people immediately jump to the conclusion of hax because of all the stories the crypto world has. But chill people please.

This update is taking longer than expected, but they communicate on Twitter and also provided btc and eth address for proof.. so I think is not about a scam but just the big amount of data.. Anyway we are gonna see soon at 4am
https://cointelegraph.com/news/binance-refutes-accusations-of-hack-with-the-power-of-blockchain

I really dont think that they were hacked but even if they did those who did it are probably dead buy now and business will continue soon as ussual.Its probably just a overload from all new accounts

I mean, seeing the warning without knowing anything beforehand always causes that fear of the platform being hacked. STILL, after 20 seconds of research you'll realize what was going on. Glad to know they are working around the clock to fix this.

Best of luck to them!

First of all, McAfee is huge shiller, i stoped following him long time ago, it just doesnt make sense. On the other hand its wierd that binance really went off like that without prior announcement, because it is one of the biggest exchanges right now, so they should be working like the best do, always transparent, we might wait and see what happens but there are small chances that it was hacked right now, its not impossible, just not likely in this case maybe

I imagine if it was hacked, we'd be hearing a lot more from people in the actual know as opposed to just hearsay...|


Just maintenance, everything requires it from time to time.

Posts like this is one of the problems of crypto.  Everyone panics which is somewhat understandable... but they want to share their panic with the world.

This is just a maintenance and that FUDs you spreading is not real though it has still chance of getting hacked but I think 1/100. I don't know why McAfee makes post like that doesn't have sense.

It's basically just John Mcafee stirring things up. Binance already tweeted him, asking him to stop spreading misinformation.

I think that John Mcafee also did not take this information from the ceiling, and the exchange may simply not want to give publicity to this, so ordinary mortals are unlikely to learn the truth :-\

this is common. dev Binance is under repair on their system.
do not let panic surge within you. try to think calm right now.

Did binance not communicate beforehand that they were going to do maintenance? That's a little unprofessional.

All you can do is trust binance's words because only they know the truth and wait it out.

If McAfee told that Binance wasn't hacked then it certainly wasn't. ;)

Not hacked:

https://cointelegraph.com/news/binance-refutes-accusations-of-hack-with-the-power-of-blockchain

Binance provided on Twitter both their Bitcoin and Ethereum wallet addresses as a prove that all the money are still there (also, remember last month when Kraken was offline for maintenance way longer than they previously announced and everything was fine). So far, it looks like this is another McAfee`s "false positive"   :D

2 hours before I was at least able to access Binance. Now even the website isn't reachable.

same panic as kraken went down for a couple of days.... just relax...

Just read the official twitter and don't panic at every little FUD. Binance will be up in a few hours, chill. Also remember to have only what you REALLY need to be on exchanges, as they are not liable for your money, you signed it off when joining.

The Kraken down was quite a success for me. Due to the outage of several days a sell order has been dropped, which saved me a lot of money. And furthermore they set the fees to 0.00% for the whole January.

Would be nice, if Binance would do something similiar. Maybe we get some "AirBnB" (https://www.reddit.com/r/BinanceExchange/comments/7w5b09/would_a_bnb_airdrop_be_called/).  ;D

I do not understand whether binance get hacked or not, but binance are still one of the good markets for buying and selling. so I still can not give an opinion for the news whether exposed to hack or not.

it's just maintenance and I don't know why rumor binance exchange has been hacked , maybe they want people panic and then buy a lot of cheaper BNB tokens  ??? ;D I trust Binance Exchange ...

I would not worry about this. In my opinion it is just some maintenance and all will be fine.

   Rumors came from Twitter, from people who see conspiracy
theories in everything. They compare this downtime with Kraken
and some other exchanges that were hacked in the past. They
see some similarities and now they are accusing Binance for covering
hack.
   Binance say they gone offline due to some server isusues. Downtime
should last couple hours but they extended it over two days. Are they
trying to cover up some hack, or they really had some problems with
their servers we will see in upcoming days. I think it is just some rumor
with intention to hurt Binance.

Yeah i don't think binance has been hacked,
we just need to wait for now

You need to read more details on their telegram official channel. They constantly updating community out there. Binance just got out of sync of all wallets and it will be running soon. Actually they don't give any ETA for the actual time when exchange will be live again. Stop listening to FUD from other user but just read what admin post, It will really helps to have peace on your mind. Read this article: https://cointelegraph.com/news/binance-refutes-accusations-of-hack-with-the-power-of-blockchain

that article is proof that Binance is not hacked.  ;)

I heard this rumor from twitter and i want to say stop believing in what John Mcafee say, binance is fine and it is not hacked, maybe they have some problem like technical problem, he just spread fud and make us panic, please stay calm and patiently waiting for news from binance. ;D ;D

Binance works well. There is nothing to worry about it. They're just trying to improve their system. It was all about maintenance.  :P

https://twitter.com/binance_2017/status/961666467325358081
shots fired though.

Personally, I started to have a decreased trust on Binance the site Maintenance took to long and I'm sure it's not good for cryptocurrencies trading exchange.

Although it looks like binance didn't get hacked, it is a little bit worrying how they didn't announce the outage in advance. Even though there may be no bad intentions behind it, such sudden outages definitely look fishy and reduce people's confidence in the exchange.

after reading comments on Facebook i believe some users were hacked. binance i dont think they were. i got almost nothing there, i dont like binance, much, i mean i like but there i dont know if i should sell or buy anything it moves so crazy,...soon we will see, POLO was hacked, bitstamp was hacked, and so also the big ones got hacked, i am soory for the guy that lost 8BTC, and as i read his comments on face, he had just SMS set, why not 2fa?, without 2fa for login, also binance or kraken or what the f. employees can enter your account and simple withdraw...and what then?, to who complain, no phone, just ignore automated, or if a reply well i am soory u lost fuinds etc...wouldbe suprised if users missing funds.

Binance refuse to accept that they're hacked and nothing more but just  server maintenance.
It's not impossible that the speculations were false but Binance don't want to scare their clients that their servers and networks are compromised and hijacked.
All the informations today against Binance were just speculations but, in my case I'm not a Binance user but I really want to know what's going on because I'm a part of this Crypto market community too.

Binance is one of the biggest exchange. And it's not been hacked, they have clarified it in their twitter. Do not believe those FUD. Just follow their twitter.

Binance is back online now! And my coins is still in the exchange.

Binance just done on system maintenance they have system upgrade. You may check also their twitter page and right now it is working fine. I dont have against this exchange they are one of the best lately.

Why is everyone so believe Mcafee!? do you really think that such a huge exchange can not be closed for technical work? Everything will be fine on binance, they care about the performance of its platform, so that we had no difficulties in working with it!

its still not opening what's going on with binance.....????

I'll tell you mate, there is no person in this world I can actually believe. And I don't believe McAfee as well.
But he seems to be "a little bit" more informed than me, you and 99.999% of "experts" that post their opinions around.
Time will tell, who's right.  ;)

this hack FUD of binance is a great example that how media FUDs work in market .

people fall for these so easily and behave like panic users .

It's still not accessible.

In an official tweet it is announced that everything is alright again.

https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/961888554224726017 (https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/961888554224726017)

However, the actual root address is for me
https://binance.com (https://binance.com)
not available.

Only if I like as suggested -
https://us.binance.com/ (https://us.binance.com/)
I get access to the page.

How secure that is, I do not know.

I think it's just ordinary server maintenance, or it could be the party finds bugs and fix their security system, our next step is just waiting and re-trading after everything is done

Whatever it was, the main site mirror is still not available. I will not say that it is the fault of hackers or planned technical work, but right now this exchange looses the confidence of users.

Binance announced on its website about the completion of the system update after technical difficulties that led to significant delays.They offer a two-week 70 percent discount on trade fees as a token of "gratitude for unshakable support throughout the renewal process."

That is great news.
I have been using Binance for several months.
It is my favorite exchange now, much better than poloniex.

Yes, Binance has already restored its work. You can withdraw funds, this information is verified personally. So do not worry.

Binance is really a good exchange site
I love it
It's easy and user friendly and has every coin you think

Binance was not hacked in my opinion, just technical problems

You are unfortunately wrong with your opinion. Binance has already admitted that a DDoS attack on the cloud provider has taken place.

So does Binance work now? Is it accessible worldwide? Are withdrawals available?

To be honest, I think many smart people thought so, because such a serious absence entails rather big problems. I can not say for sure, but it seems like the mirrors work, but it can also be just hackers.

I think they do not write the truth on Twitter, and I really believe it is an attack

Binance made a statement on this issue. There is no problem with hacking. They took the money for them to show it.
Now the exchange is open and there is no problem, you can access your account :)

can we log in with our accounts in us.binance.com or kr.binance.com????

Pass technical work. They planned to restore access to the exchange yesterday, but the technical work was extended

i think it know only staff in binance. although it was hacked binance never tell about it.because it will brake the trust of exchange.then people never use that exchange again and withdraw their funds.may be a technical problem.but really don't know.but the good thing is exchange is back and funds are safe.that is the most important thing.if it was hacked binance will increase the security in exchange.nothing to worry.

Binance is top exchange with good security protocols, I dont believe they got hacked. FUD is just everywhere these days..

Yes the technical support was doing their best to restore the good service in the trading site, that's why more people could've do the usual trading activities they had. Hopefully the situation can be normalized as soon as possible so that everyone can have an active trades to do. Nothing to worry about the safety of the trading funds, because its been secured by the admins of the site.

binance ceo said that 'we were not hacked'. They showed this by sharing their wallet. McAfee speculated and messed up.

it is not funny, binance was already hucked in the past, I am sure owner already did all activities to avoid   such problems.
It was technical works, dont worry

This is just an update because there are too many traders that are pouring on their trading platform daily and it needs a maintenance in order to it to operate smoothly. If you are in doubt, you can just pull out your balance and go back if the operation backs to normal again.

I think binance is fine. They only update the user data and update security. The proof of the app on android is fine.
I have no problems with the binance app on android.

It is not hacked, it is just a maintenance and they also need an upgrade for their system. Every platform already did this before so it is not a surprise if binance is under maintenance because of so many subscriber and new account that register on this new emerging platform.

Luckily it was't hacked, there was just a maintenance work which took more time than expected. I was also worried as my funds are also on binance. Now their system is working fine, so i think you should lock this topic as it is no longer required.

It is just a threat. Binance is the most suitable trading site I have ever tried. They are just improving the security of the site and facing many technical re-arrangements. Chill out and binance will be working again soon.

FUDS! Mcaffe is the biggest lier bastard interested in crypto. He started to FUD about binance.
They had some problems on server side and everything works fine now.
My gunbot started to work few hours before and now everything is fine.

To be honest, I think many smart people thought so, because such a serious absence entails rather big problems. I can not say for sure, but it seems like the mirrors work, but it can also be just hackers.

I never thought Binance was hacked, they have had an explosion of new members lately and i thought they were carrying out maintenance to have some kind of upgrade done and they announced that the exchange will not be available so sometime, i guess its back already, so it was never hacked.

No, there simply were works. But they dragged on apparently because of some difficulties. In occasion of hacking, they wrote that all means are safe

Oh c'mon! Don't believe about Binance getting hacked. It's the best cryptocurrency exchange that we have today, and there's no way that it's hacked according to the owner himself. John McAfee himself want to create some FUD in hopes that he could buy some coins in the market at lower prices. Nice try, John McAfee. ;)

I love Binance to be honest, and I owned some few coins there like TRX and others that I got purely from commissions (I think the trader I referred was kind of active in trading, so I'm lucky).

Is McAfee still even relevant? Worst guy to follow in cryptos. His success is based on trading bots that followed his tweets lol

Binance was never been hacked. As per their CEO (Chanpeng Zhao) the system was upgraded that's why there was issue of accessing the binance.

Binance is hard to hack. They only maintain the site to upgrade. I checked their wallet. No money has been transferred. This is very secure and congratulations. They have reduced the exchange fees to compensate us. Great

I don't believe on the words of a person who can't even justify his previous statements against bitcoin and cryptos.
They aims to target cryptos by attacking leading crypto exchanges by their false allegations to damage their reputation. 
Manipulators are active these in media and in market too, McAfee is one of them so i repeat don't trust this man.

was supposed to be back online today?   still not functioning.  hacked or not they should update their screen with more than 'oops something went wrong'

There have been many tweets about that. However, looks like right now everything is working fine and Binance said that they were not hacked and all deposits are safe.

anyone else still having issues with Binance and even logging in, doesn't look like their fully up and running still yet or is it just me

No, they weren't hacked. It was just a bunch of FUD and it gave me yet another reason to consider everything John McAfee says with a HUGE grain of salt  ;D

it was a DDOS attack nothing to panic they are live now...

Binance is not hacked because they clearly said in their tweets in twitter that they are just undergoing into an upgrade for their site and they also gave their address for their customers and doubters to clarify if they really get hacked so i checked their addresses and it clearly says that they did not get hack so there is nothing to worry.

No. Binance maintenance to upgrade the system

It's not easy to sustain a good exchange since the popularity of binance spread to the whole crypto. If they exceed the time they've given to us please wait more because they are doing their best to make binance a strong and maximum security exchange. It is normal in a maintenance that always overtime because of having some difficult issues. But still I don't want to risk my tokens in exchanges that always have some errors in their servers, it's hackable.

their cloud provider faced DDOS attack maybe this is the reason they suspend the trading for good reason.. BINANCE is live again

Hello!No binance is not hacked they go 1 week out becose they pay hackers to hack they homepage for understanding what lvl seceurity they have on this time,and no again they dont be hacked they have good security :D

This was due to a technical problem, remember in January Kraken was out for maintenant for 2 days, this is due to the millions of people joining the crypto world, but I understand it is annoying

the cowards revealed something like this. I was never afraid. because I always trust binance. binance is the best market right now. kappa.

I believe that in fact the binance was hacked and since every owner of their trading platforms is trying to maintain a reputation they can always state that now it's not just strips that are technical works and would be something like that

Nope, they are just overloaded. Many people wants to join and it is usual these days to have hick ups on exchanges.
If you ask me don't worry. Everything will resolve in few weeks.
