what happened

According to bravenewcoin.com, Binance said on November 3 that hourly deposits had begun to exceed withdrawals for the first time in several days. The exchange links the shift to users gradually returning to normal activity after a period of heavy outflows.

From November 1 to 3, however, cumulative net outflows reached about $5.276 billion, with roughly $10.97 billion withdrawn against $5.695 billion deposited. The largest hourly outflow, about $1.243 billion, occurred at 08:00 UTC on November 1.

Meanwhile, Binance is restoring withdrawals asset by asset and network by network. It says it has replenished about 95% of the roughly $6.3 billion in tokens taken in the October 29 breach. The FBI attributed the theft to North Korean hackers in the TraderTraitor campaign, a claim Pyongyang rejected.

why it matters

Two things matter for the market: the direction of flows on a major exchange and how quickly confidence in its reserves recovers. Net outflows over three days remain large, and withdrawals for some assets are still limited, so the picture is incomplete.
