Binance’s Spot Market Share Drops to 42% After $6.3B Hack as OKX Gains
Binance's spot market share has dropped to 42%, its lowest in over three months, following a significant $6.3 billion hack. Before the incident, Binance held about 48% of the market. In contrast, OKX has gained traction, increasing its share from 11% to 14%, while Coinbase and Kraken also saw slight upticks.
After the hack, which the FBI attributed to North Korea's TraderTraitor group, Binance paused withdrawals. By November 1, withdrawals resumed in phases, but net outflows reached $5.6 billion, about 3.5% of total assets, as users reacted to the breach. However, Binance reported a shift in user activity with deposits outpacing withdrawals recently.
To support its VIP users, Binance introduced a VIP Level Protection Program, ensuring that eligible users maintain their highest VIP status achieved before the hack. They also launched a community appreciation campaign with incentives for trading volume.

Ethereum Bounces 6%, But Wall Street Hasn't Bought a Single Day Since September
Whales moved over $140 million in ETH this month, but without consistent inflows from ETFs, the outlook feels shaky. The price action shows a broader downtrend since the all-time high, with recent peaks coming in lower. The daily chart is showing some bullish signs, but the narrowing Bollinger Bands suggest a potential squeeze ahead.
Ultimately, for this bounce to hold, we need to see ETF demand pick back up or network activity recover. If not, keep an eye on that $2,200 level — it could dictate the next move.

One Corner of Crypto Missed the Post-Election Rally, and It Carries Trump’s Name
TRUMP dropped 18.10% to $1.25, hitting a record low of $1.22, while MELANIA fell 13.15% to $0.06488, also reaching a record low. Both tokens are now down significantly from their peaks in early 2025, with TRUMP sitting 98.3% below its high and MELANIA 99.5% lower. On the flip side, Bitcoin gained 4.36% and Ethereum rose 6.50% over the past 24 hours, showing a stark contrast in performance.
DJT stock closed down 24.54% at $4.49, marking its lowest point on record. Interestingly, World Liberty Financial, tied to Trump’s DeFi venture, was the only bright spot, rising 3.22% despite also hitting a record low recently.
The political landscape is heating up, with the new House Oversight Committee chair, Rep. Robert Garcia, planning to investigate the family's crypto dealings. This could put World Liberty in the spotlight, especially with past calls for SEC probes into Trump Media’s operations.
For TRUMP holders, keep an eye on November 22; that’s when the top 185 holders get to meet Trump at a gala dinner. It’s a curious moment for the token, given the recent market activity.
