Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Bitwise reported that bitcoin rose in five and fell in five of the ten largest crypto exchange hacks, measured over the 30 days following each event, according to a November 4 memo from CIO Matt Hougan. The tally includes the Binance hack, though its 30-day window has not yet elapsed. Hougan argued the data shows bitcoin does not consistently sell off after major breaches because the hacked assets belong to exchanges, not the Bitcoin network itself. The finding matters as a counterpoint to the assumption that exchange failures automatically dent BTC sentiment. Next, watch whether the Binance episode completes the sample and whether the 5-5 split holds as more large breaches are added.
