According to a statement made by the Binance co-founder, there was an insider information leak during the RONIN listing.
Binance Exchange listed the RONIN altcoin today at 16:00. However, it came to the fore that some information was leaked before the listing announcement. Binance team members may have leaked the information before the listing.
According to the information shared, the team had prepared everything on the blockchain before the listing announcement.
The Binance team members involved in this are still uncertain. However, Binance co-founder Yi He said the following about the members involved:
- It was detected that the token was integrated into the blockchain by team members before the listing announcement.
- People who leak information will first be warned. If this negligence happens again, the warned people will be fired.
- If people within the team report those who leaked information about the RONIN listing, they will receive a fee between $10,000 and $5 million. This amount will be given from the budget that Binance has created for security vulnerabilities.
Binance will follow these two rules from now on for similar events that may occur again.
