Binance denies rumors of $150 (200,250 won) compensation for withdrawal suspension

Binance denied claims that it is paying users a $150 (₩202,500) compensation for the withdrawal halt, calling a screenshot circulating on X digitally fabricated. The dispute stems from an October 30 security incident in which Binance disclosed a hot wallet breach resulting in approximately $6.3 billion (₩8.41 trillion) in asset losses and a temporary suspension of withdrawals for security checks, while deposits continue to operate normally. The denial matters because it signals Binance will not extend goodwill payments beyond its official remediation, limiting expectations for affected users. Watch for the resumption of withdrawals and further details on the breach's scope and asset recovery.
