One of the world’s top cryptocurrency trading platforms has confirmed that a hack resulted in the loss of 7,000 bitcoin this week, equivalent to more than $40 million.

Binance, founded in 2017 and led by Changpeng Zhao, said online a “large scale security breach” had been found yesterday at around 5:15 p.m. Initial analysis suggested hackers plundered the currency from a bitcoin wallet belonging to the company in one vast transaction.
