Binance says, they were not hacked, but had an unexpected server blackout due to overload, what do you think guys?

the explanation from Changpeng Zhao regarding the data migration is plausible. i'd wait before assuming the worst. expected ETA for re-launch of trading is 5 hours. the ETH account is widely identified as binance's and the account activity isn't indicative of a hack.

I think it's lies.  

if so, they aren't doing themselves any favors taking so long to bring the site up. there will probably be somewhat of an exodus when they are back on-line no matter what now.

It is one among the largest cryptocurrency exchange. Prior to the closure for scheduled maintenance it gave a clear message stating that the server is down and people were working on it. And recently an update has been given to users stating that users will be provided 30 minutes to close the trades for the maintenance purpose which will go live once after maintenance.

Wait and see.  No point speculating its a hack, if it is there will be evidence and they'll be panned for it, worse for lying.  So reserve judgement. 

Unlike McAfee, what does he know, where would he get such reports from?
