BingX, a Singapore-based cryptocurrency exchange, has reportedly been hacked, resulting in significant asset losses. The hack, detected on September 20, led to the theft of over $43 million in digital assets, with some reports indicating losses of up to $52 million. Various reports indicate that the stolen assets include more than 360 altcoins, with significant amounts of USDT, WUSD, BTCB, and other cryptocurrencies. The stolen funds have been transferred to multiple addresses and swapped for ETH, BNB, and other coins.
