Key points
- Binance's tracked assets fell from $145bn on 29 Oct to roughly $128bn on 2 Nov, a drop of about $16.6bn, according to DefiLlama.
- The full zero-knowledge proof of reserves is now due by 3 Nov UTC, after 40 to 50 hours of computation, a day later than co-CEO Richard Teng had indicated.
Binance's tracked assets have fallen by about $16.6bn since the 29 Oct hack, according to DefiLlama data cited by Bitcoin.com News. The analytics platform put the exchange's tracked assets at roughly $128bn early on 2 Nov, down from about $145bn on 29 Oct, a decline of nearly 12%.
The figure reflects falling crypto prices and the roughly $6.3bn the attackers took from hot wallets as well as withdrawals. A screenshot showed $5.95bn in net outflows over 24 hours.
Critics said hundreds of tokens remain locked.
Co-CEO Richard Teng had said the full proof of reserves would be published by 2 Nov. Binance's third recovery update moved it to 3 Nov UTC, citing 40 to 50 hours of computation for the zero-knowledge proof. The only public reserve data is a 31 Oct snapshot, taken before the withdrawal wave.
What to watch: Binance says its full zero-knowledge proof of reserves is due by 3 Nov UTC, the same day as the US midterm elections.
