Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Binance co-founder He Yi has denied rumors circulating about a theft incident at the exchange, stating that on-chain sleuth ZachXBT never made the claims attributed to him. The rumors, spread via an AlphaWire post citing unverified sources, alleged that a Binance engineer had a romantic relationship with a North Korean agent and left their laptop unattended on the day of the attack. He Yi's rebuttal came in a direct reply to the AlphaWire post on November 2. The dispute highlights ongoing security concerns and misinformation risks around exchange breaches, with attribution disputes involving North Korean hacking groups frequently roiling crypto markets. Watch for whether ZachXBT issues a direct statement and whether Binance confirms or denies any actual security incident.
