Title: Funds from Binance hack went to other exchanges
Post by: FreeEarnsActivist on May 10, 2019, 11:33:18 AM
According to blockchain analytics company Coinfirm, the hackers have moved the stolen bitcoin through several digital wallets, with almost all the coins now sitting in seven digital addresses. Although the movement of cryptocurrencies can be traced, the identity and location of the hackers or owners of the wallets holding the stolen coins is unknown, Coinfirm said.

This topic should be moved from the currency exchange section.

why? it's to alarm users that some coins might be dirty
I mean I can see why it's off topic here but still it's related
e: some coins on some exchanges.

indeed it should be moved to the discussion board.
This board is only for Currency Exchange.

Regarding your comment, if you receive indeed these "dirty" coins from some exchanges, it's only the responsibility of the exchange, as you could proof anytime where you got the coins from.

If they have a strong evidence about this, then they should determine which exchange these bitcoins landed, and inform the certain exchanges to hold the funds for further investigation. I am not sure if what I suggested would be possible considering all the legal aspects.
