Topic: Binance hacked. How can this affect altcoin market? - page 7. (Read 1160 times)
It seems markets didn't affect which is a surprise. A good one actually. But i wouldn't trade before binance let withdrawals again.
What a great let down for us that binance got hacked. At least they will pay from their own pockets.
By the way, market seems not to care the hack. I was expecting a dump but didn't happen.

Binance has always avoided this type of news, so it was bound to happen eventually. These hacks happen with regularity and should be priced in by investors. I think if Binance had been unable to make investors whole the market would have plunged. That Binance will cover investor losses speaks to its legitimacy.
7,000 bitcoin stolen ? Wow, it is a big amount of money.
I think the market will get impact of this incident.Hopefully not significant.

It may affect BNB negatively, but hasn't done yet. Not sure if they have halted trading whilst they sort out the mess - if so, then BNB may drop once it restarts.
For wider crypto and alts, I would expect that the bad news would have caused a major price drop across all coins. The fact that it hasn't augurs well for continuation of the bullish sentiment that we've had for a couple of months now. If prices can survive a major exchange hack relatively unscathed, then I would expect BTC to push onwards to $6k once things settle down again, and alts to follow with more upwards price movement.

After this news on the main social media pages, I withdrew all my holdings immediately. I don't believe the power of the centralised marketplace or exchange anymore. It can happen again.

To my surprise, we survived very calmly. It is not absolutely clear what happened there, but Binance and CZ quickly work, well done.

Will this event affect altcoins?
I don't think it is going to affect altcoins in any way because binance is a big exchange and the money stolen should be nothing to them, they will have to bare the lost and employ more developers that would be able to take the security of the platform serious, though I don't know what part of their platform was hacked, either it was individual accounts or the Blockchain were the coins are kept and I don't think binance would reveal what part of their platform was hacked. Will this event affect altcoins?
The market is still affected, with 7,000 BTCs. This is a lot, but hacking. Can not be sold, this BTC address is estimated to be of concern to many people, expecting the exchange to upgrade security.

Binance was hacked but there is no impact on the price of the coin they have SAFU funds to replace the funds that was stolen, that is was in their hot wallet that was got stolen and not on their exchange so there is nothing to worry but deposit and widrawal is lock at the moment.

Not much effect on the rices for this news other than a slight dump on the bitcoin and all other cryptos prices.
No funds actually lost from users perspective since they already mentioned that everyone will receive their funds.

Alts were dumped and I think this decrease to be continued, now I increase my short positions. Also you should take into account Craig can dump btc today, so it is also main factor for dump
I think that this will affect Bitcoin price in next days, but maybe not that hard at this moment. Cryptocurrency market shows strenght by not having too much dip which actually surprise me a little bit. Have in mind that Bitcoin have huge resistance over head.

I don't think the hack will have any effect on altcoin market but it might affect the exchange as people will be scare to transact with it a but come to think of it, I believe binance is bigger than this and can get over it without it affecting them
Not only altcoin market but cryptocurrency market as a whole. Once they have announced that they have been hacked, the bitcoin price momentum have been stopped and dump a little bit. Imagine top one exchange that are very secured have been hacked, of course it will caused a lot of FUD in the market overall.
The cash that was stolen is just $40m and this is negligible to the altcoin market. Besides, the CEO of Tron has pledge to deposit 7,000BTC on binaance in support of CZ to purchase BNB, TRON and BitTorrent. So others stake holders will likely same line. No issues, the hackers are the losers.

What it can affect is the particularly its competitor exchange that is also live in the market, in which, there is a possibility that their traders will going to use the other platforms right now, figuring out that Binance do also have its flaws in the market. In which people feel unsecured right now. Knowing that, they didn't really have their private keys and still trading.
Although I had some personal investment but the dollar is still showing. I do not know if I can withdraw my investment, but I think there was a Big Exchange , so if the investors do not return the investment, then there will be some impact on the market.I am sure that they will activate withdraw&deposit soon. Don't worry for your investment. You can take control again soon.

Is there an exchange specifically for just altcoin without Bitcoin on it? We are talking about 7000 Bitcoin you should be referring to every exchange or do I say the Bitcoin price
