Crypto exchange BingX has been hacked for a "minor" amount of assets and the exchange plans to compensate users for any loss, the firm's CEO said in a message on X.

On-chain data suggests nearly $43 million was stolen from the exchange in multiple tranches, with $13.25 million ether, $2.3 million BNB, $4.4 million USDT, among other being drained.

The first hack was for approximately $26 million, while a few hours afterward, hackers took an additional $16.5 million from the exchange.

"The total loss is minimal and manageable. This incident will not affect our ongoing business operations," BingX CEO Vivien Lien said on X. "Trading services continue as usual. Withdrawals and deposits are temporarily delayed and are expected to be restored within 24 hours at the latest."

Aside from stablecoins, hackers took more than 360 different types of altcoins.

Data from Etherscan shows most of the stolen crypto was swapped for ETH and BNB at DEXs like Uniswap and Kyberswap.

As of press time the wallet tied to the hack, which Etherscan says received most of its funds from the BingX hot wallet, has over 1,000 ether in it and tokens worth $5 million.
