Binance has confirmed an on-chain hack but has not said how much was taken, leaving outside analysts to estimate the scale. Shared on-chain analysis reviewed outflows from wallets labeled as Binance-controlled and put the total at about $5.643 billion as of October 29, 2026, at 21:22 UTC.
The breakdown is heavily weighted toward Ethereum. The analysis attributes $3.528 billion to ETH, $1.449 billion to Bitcoin, and $628 million to Tron. Outflows from Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base were much smaller, at roughly $38 million combined.
How the estimate was built
The source said change transactions were left out of the calculation. It also said later transfers and exchange transactions were not counted again as duplicates. That matters because blockchain flows can pass through several addresses, and a simple balance change can overstate losses if internal transfers are included.
Earlier reports had suggested Binance might be draining about $2.53 billion in assets across more than 60 tokens from its Ethereum hot wallet. The newer figure is larger and covers more networks, though it remains an on-chain estimate. Binance has not published a confirmed loss figure, and the exchange has not detailed which assets were affected.
Token list remains unclear
The article body did not include the promised list of stolen altcoins. Without that list, the token-level impact is still hard to verify. The Ethereum hot wallet figure, if accurate, would point to a broad set of ERC-20 assets, but no names were provided in the material reviewed. That gap leaves room for speculation, and perhaps for confusion, as users wait for a fuller accounting.
What users can watch
For now, the clearest signals are wallet outflows and any official Binance statement. Users can track labeled addresses and watch for exchange notices. The size of the reported outflows is significant, but the final number may change as more data is reviewed. This is not investment advice.
