Hackers appear to have taken more than $5 billion from Binance, the largest crypto exchange, on Thursday October 29. Security firm Blockaid called it the biggest crypto hack in history. Bitcoin fell 4.8%. Binance paused withdrawals and says it will cover all losses, while Tether and Circle Internet Group (CRCL) froze stablecoins tied to the hacker's wallet.
