Chainalysis: Binance Hacker Swapped $325M to Evade Freezes

The significance here is less the dollar figure than the method: Chainalysis is pointing to automated laundering patterns, which implies industrial-scale tooling rather than manual obfuscation. That matters for exchanges and compliance teams, since freezes are only as effective as the speed with which they can be applied against scripted movement. The report's silence on timing and assets is itself notable, and whether investigators can pin down those details is the open question.
