Binance removes access for its trading platform integration with SignalPlus after issuing a security warning. The exchange says its core systems and user funds are unaffected, but it cuts off trading connections—described as removing API keys or related access—as a precaution. The company urges users to check their accounts.
Decrypt and CoinDesk both frame the move as a safeguard around a “potential security issue,” with Binance emphasizing that it has not detected harm to its own infrastructure or customers. Decrypt adds background that the decision comes about a week after a major hack widely blamed on North Korea.
Channel NewsAsia reports that Binance, along with Deribit, also removes SignalPlus API keys. This reflects a broader response across exchanges rather than an isolated action by Binance, though the outlets’ summaries do not detail the specific nature of the underlying issue or any technical findings beyond the precautionary steps.
