Binance France to Close Customer Accounts on December 31, Introduce Monthly Fees From November 29
According to Cryptoast, Binance France will close its customer accounts on December 31, 2026, after failing to obtain authorization under the EU's MiCA framework. Deposits have already been suspended. Citing a Binance customer email, Cryptoast reported that accounts still holding assets will incur a monthly management fee of 0.025%, with a minimum charge of 10 USDC, starting November 29. Crypto assets not withdrawn by December 31 may be converted, transferred, or otherwise handled under the Terms of Service. The closures apply to accounts held with the Binance France entity and do not mean Binance's global platform is closing all French users' accounts.

A reported $6.3 billion incident allegedly began with a single employee falling for a fake job interview, then spread to two more employees, with internal AI tools potentially involved. So much for the so-called multi-layer defense.
I don’t want to speculate about a competitor’s control failures.
But I do want every crypto user to understand one thing: a marketing-driven culture can be extremely dangerous in the crypto industry.
You may be attracted by a few extra percentage points of yield or some promotional bonuses. Hackers and fraudsters are after 100% of your principal.
In crypto, security, responsibility, and compliance must always come before marketing. No amount of yield or promotional rewards can compensate for losing your original funds.
Choose platforms that prioritize protecting your assets, not just attracting them.

我真心不想在竞争对手遭遇危机的时候批评他们。我真正希望的是，我们能够与他们携手合作，共同提高安全标准，更好地保护整个加密行业。
但我不得不说，那位自称已经不再管理币安的“币圈首富”（你们真的相信吗？）最近接受的采访，实在让我感到恶心。
整场采访充斥着胡说八道和误导性言论。他似乎在淡化自身应承担的责任，甚至试图通过贬低传统银行的安全性，为自己的失败寻找借口。
在这样一场危机中，我们本应看到的是责任担当和行业领导力。但这场采访给人的感觉，却是在不断推卸责任、转移焦点。
这绝不是我们这个行业需要的领导力。
自从事件发生以来，这位“币圈首富”似乎就一直停不下来：
1. 社交媒体上最活跃的人之一。 在整场危机期间，他可以说是币安相关人士中在社交媒体上发声最多、最活跃的一个。
2. 还有时间和马斯克吵架。 在如此严重的安全危机期间，他居然还有精力与 Elon Musk（@elonmusk）争论 SpaceX 股票投资的问题。
3. 反复强调“只有2%的资金流出币安”。 仿佛这个数字就能回答大家对平台安全性的根本质疑。
4. 继续开展营销活动吸引用户存款。 即使危机仍在持续，吸引新资金流入的营销活动也没有停止。
5. 试图暗示传统银行的安全性更差。 一个自称专业的加密行业领导者，怎么能做出如此具有误导性的比较？传统银行与加密交易所面对的威胁模型、攻击面以及安全事故的后果，都存在根本性差异。脱离这些背景进行简单比较，是极其不负责任的。
6. 几乎每次发声，都似乎把一位怀孕的女性推到危机最前线。 而自己则反复加上同一句免责声明：“我已经不管理币安了。”
与此同时，整个加密行业却在为这场危机付出代价：
1. 比特币价格据报道从约81,000美元跌至75,000美元。 市场在动荡中遭受了明显冲击。
2. 数十亿美元的杠杆仓位遭到清算。 市场波动引发了大规模的强制平仓。
3. 整个加密行业的公信力可能再次受到重创。 传统资本市场、机构投资者以及全球监管机构，可能因此对整个行业的安全性和可信度产生更深的疑虑。
经历了这一切，他们所谓的“多层安全防御体系”，如今看起来越来越像一个笑话。
我们的行业需要的，不是更多的借口，不是更多的公关话术，而是真正的合作、真正的责任担当，以及切实有效的用户资产保护和安全标准建设。
少一些推卸责任，少一些营销包装，多一些真正的安全投入和行业协作。
这才是我更愿意投入时间和精力去推动的事情。
即使是竞争对手，我也真心希望我们能够携手把这件事做好。

看到这张漫画，我既感到自豪，也感受到巨大的压力。
我们从来不说 OKX 绝对安全，更不说我们能够免疫任何攻击。没有任何一家公司可以真正做到这一点。
但我可以负责任地说，OKX 始终把安全和保护客户资产作为第一生命线。 过去 13 年的安全记录，背后是十几年持续不断的技术投入、工程积累、安全体系建设、实战经验和严格的运营管理。
我们始终以专业、严肃的态度面对各种安全威胁，而不是把安全当成营销噱头。
在大家看不到的地方，OKX 建立了大量自主研发的安全技术、内部系统、策略、框架，以及持续进行的渗透测试和独立审计。出于安全原因，其中很多核心机制和技术细节无法公开。这些都是我们长期积累的安全能力，也在不断接受检验、挑战和升级。
有一件事情，我可以和大家分享：自从最近 Binance 发生安全事件以来，整个 OKX 团队同样非常忙碌，很多安全、技术和风控同事都在日夜奋战。
不是因为 OKX 遭到了攻击，而是因为任何一家大型交易所遭遇的安全事件，都是对整个行业的一次警示。
当一些人把友商遭遇安全事件当成推出营销活动、吸引流量、争夺市场份额的机会时，我们选择把精力放在另外一些事情上。
过去这段时间，我们的团队一直在围绕四个方面持续工作：
1. 实时追踪被盗资金流向。
以秒级延迟监控相关被盗资金的链上流转，持续识别可疑地址和交易，并采取必要措施，尽最大努力阻止被盗资金通过 OKX 交易所及 Web3 DEX 聚合器进行转移和洗钱。
2. 全面加强市场风险控制。
评估安全事件可能引发的市场风险，必要时进一步收紧相关风控措施，提前防范流动性冲击、连环清算和潜在的市场踩踏，尽最大努力避免风险扩散，保护用户和整个行业。
3. 深入分析攻击模式和潜在漏洞。
研究攻击者可能采用的技术手段、攻击路径和潜在漏洞，特别关注 Crypto 企业的软件开发供应链安全，以及 AI Coding Agent 和相关依赖组件可能引入的新型安全威胁。
4. 以友商的教训为镜子，重新审视我们自己的安全体系。
对内部控制、权限管理、钱包基础设施、安全架构等进行深入、系统性的检查和复盘，持续发现问题、挑战假设、完善防御体系。
我们绝不能因为过去没有发生过类似事件，就认为未来也不会发生。
安全从来不是一个可以宣布完成的项目，而是一项永无止境的责任。
它需要持续的投入、专业的技术、严格的执行，更需要始终保持谦卑、警惕和自我怀疑。
在友商遭遇攻击的时候，我们不选择通过高调营销来吸引眼球和流量，而是选择更加努力地工作，保护我们的客户，也尽自己最大的努力维护整个行业的安全和稳定。
商业竞争应该体现在更好的产品、技术和服务上。
但在安全面前，整个行业应该站在一起。
保护客户资产，是 OKX 永远不能妥协的第一责任。
感谢大家的信任。我们会始终保持敬畏，不敢有丝毫懈怠，更不会把大家的信任视为理所当然。

Circle and Tether did a Great job this time.
The crypto industry, including exchanges and stablecoin issuers, should work together to build an industry-wide security response mechanism.
We need a real-time alert system that allows participants to share information immediately when a hack occurs, coordinate a rapid response, and temporarily freeze suspected stolen funds before they can be moved or laundered.
Speed is critical. We should establish standardized protocols, clear responsibilities, and appropriate safeguards to ensure we can act within minutes, not hours or days.
Protecting users and their assets should be a shared responsibility across the entire industry, not just individual platforms.

An exciting step toward bringing perpetual futures into the regulated U.S. market.
Combining ICE’s institutional-grade market infrastructure, Trade[XYZ]’s onchain innovation, and OKX’s distribution and trading technology could help create a new generation of global, 24/7 financial markets.
Different technologies. Different strengths. One shared vision: making financial markets more open, efficient, and accessible.
Looking forward to building this together. 🚀

OKX Shield is more than a protection program. It’s designed to encourage users to adopt stronger account security through technologies such as passkeys, secure enclaves, and anti-deepfake protection.
We backtested these security measures against five years of historical account takeover cases. The results were encouraging: very few of those cases would have succeeded if users had enabled these protections.
Our goal is to prevent account takeovers before they happen—not just compensate users afterward.
OKX Shield covers eligible account takeover incidents, but not scams involving transactions authorized by users.
Better security. Stronger prevention. Real protection.
That’s how we build trust through technology. 🛡️
It’s hard to believe it’s been 7 years! Bittersweet to wrap up a chapter with an inspiring partner and friend like @Haider.
Thank you, Haider, for your leadership, creativity, and unmatched energy in building @okx globally. You’ve played a defining role in shaping our brand into what it is today while getting our team ready for the next phase.
Enjoy every moment of your well-deserved break with family. Will miss you, and can’t wait to see what you adventure into next!
After almost seven years at @OKX, I am stepping back from my role to take a meaningful break, focus on my family and personal priorities, and make space for what comes next.
It has been an incredible privilege to help build the @OKX brand and see its growth. I am deeply grateful to Star Xu @star_okx for his trust, partnership, and the opportunities he created for all of us.
And thank you to every OKX employee I have had the privilege to work alongside. I am proud of what we built together and excited to see the company continue to grow.
This is not goodbye. It is simply the next chapter.

13 years ago, OKX started as a crypto exchange.
Today, we’re building for something much bigger.
Crypto changed how value moves. AI will change how financial institutions operate. The internet connects everything.
At OKX Now, I shared how we see the next generation of finance: more open, global, 24/7, intelligent, and increasingly onchain.
The infrastructure is changing. The products are changing. The users are changing.
Our job is simple: keep building ahead of that change.
Still learning. Still building. 🚀

Grateful to welcome Circle, Ripple, QRT and SC Ventures as investors in OKX.

NEW: Crypto exchange OKX has raised new funding at a $25 billion valuation from Qube Research & Technologies, Circle, Ripple, and Standard Chartered's SC Ventures, Bloomberg reported.
OKX did not disclose the amount raised, which extends an approximate $200 million March funding round at the same valuation.

The full cost of moving €1,000 into $BTC and out to self-custody ranges from €2.44 to €30.60 across seven exchanges.
@OKX is the cheapest at €2.44, roughly 3x below @Bybit_Official (€7.31) and 12.5x below @Cryptocom, the priciest on the same route.
“Compliance is not just about obtaining a licence. It is about building a culture where governance, risk management, transparency, and customer protection are embedded into every decision we make.”
Eight years ago, in 2018, OKX began building our European business.
Over the past eight years, we have invested heavily in products, technology, governance, risk management, and regulatory engagement. We have worked closely with regulators across Europe to help shape the next generation of digital finance.
The journey has not always been perfect. Like every fast-growing company, we have encountered gaps, made mistakes, and faced intense regulatory scrutiny. When that happened, we addressed the issues, accepted responsibility, learned from them, and strengthened our controls and governance.
Today, OKX is proud to be the first company in the European Union to receive a MiCA licence, while also holding authorization for the broadest range of regulated crypto services under the MiCA framework.
Compliance is not just about obtaining a licence. It is about building a culture where governance, risk management, transparency, and customer protection are embedded into every decision we make.
We have invested significantly in building one of the industry’s strongest control frameworks and continue to work closely with independent external auditors to demonstrate the effectiveness of our governance and compliance systems.
Today, European users can access EUR on-ramp and off-ramp services, zero-fee stablecoin payments through the Mastercard network, hundreds of crypto spot trading pairs, and a comprehensive suite of crypto, commodity, and equity derivatives. We have also launched an AI-native Agentic infrastructure that enables customers to interact with our platform through AI agents, with many more innovations already in development.
Transparency has always been a core principle for us. We were the first major global platform to publish Proof of Reserves continuously for more than 40 consecutive months, helping establish what has since become an industry standard. Our Group financial statements are also audited by a Big Four accounting firm, reinforcing our commitment to financial governance and accountability.
Today, hundreds of OKX employees across Europe are building products and services for millions of users.
Our ambition goes far beyond becoming another crypto exchange.
We are building the financial infrastructure for the next generation of digital finance—bringing together crypto, traditional assets, payments, AI, and on-chain financial services on a single regulated platform.
This is only the beginning. Europe will continue to be one of the most important regions for OKX, and we remain committed to investing, innovating, and building here for decades to come.
