Details of hacking
The goal of bold raids was an old man based in the United States. According to ZACHXBT, attackers have made all security measures inefficient using social engineering tactics. Attackers have used Monero to wash the stolen funds to create enough trading volume that can affect asset prices. But there are some questions that have no answer to the raid.

He also argued that $ 330 million came from a “interesting” source, but he did not provide details and could never do it.
ZACHXBT also did not explain in detail the roles of his compliance. But Binance’s direct participation is noteworthy. The investigator also mentioned that the victim’s information may have been stolen from personal data leaks. Last month, Binance users used a similar method to target.
