Binance's Chinese official account stated that its team is continuously working closely with law enforcement agencies, asset issuers, blockchain intelligence firms and industry partners to track and freeze more relevant assets. The total frozen amount is expected to rise further, and updates will be shared in a timely manner once more confirmation is available.

Coinbase Chief Security Officer Jeff Lunglhofer said in a post that Coinbase’s security team is intercepting transfers to compromised Binance wallets, and has made partial adjustments to its cold wallet system solely out of prudence.

Regarding the Binance hack, some believe the attackers may have exploited Ethereum’s EIP-7702 mechanism to take control of wallets and siphon funds. X user 0xVEER noted that developer 0xjustadev warned against “this scenario” as early as during EIP-7702 discussions roughly two years ago. In October 2024, a developer in the Ethereum Community Forum’s EIP-7702 (Set EOA account code) discussion thread pointed out that current phishing attacks mostly rely on EIP-712 signatures, which are relatively readable and easy to spoof. The EIP-7702 proposal, however, could allow attackers to drain all valuable assets—including native tokens—via signatures that are less readable and harder to simulate. The developer also expressed concern that wallets might adopt highly centralized contract signature whitelists as a result, a step backward for security and decentralization. To date, Binance has not officially confirmed whether the incident is indeed linked to EIP-7702, and the above content is solely community perspectives.
