What happened
Binance reported net outflows of $5.3 billion after a record hack. Nearly $11 billion left the exchange over 46 hours, though the CEO said hourly deposits were beginning to exceed withdrawals.
Why it matters
A large exchange hack can hurt trust in crypto markets and lead to tighter risk appetite. In India, that can affect trading sentiment in listed financial firms with crypto exposure and broader appetite for speculative assets, even if the direct market link is limited.
Global impact
Crypto markets often react quickly to exchange security shocks, with prices and volumes becoming more volatile. The effect can spread through global risk sentiment, especially for tokens and platforms linked to the exchange.
