Binance says it has reopened cryptocurrency withdrawals across 87 networks this week and is aiming to restore the remaining networks and assets by the end of next week. The update marks another step in the exchange’s recovery from the October 29 security breach, which resulted in about $6.3 billion in stolen tokens.

In a recovery notice published on November 14, Binance listed 87 networks where withdrawals have reopened, including Litecoin, NEAR, Cardano, Stellar and Avalanche. The company said it would continue restoring access to the remaining networks and assets, but described the end-of-next-week target as an aim rather than a confirmed completion date.

Binance warned that users may encounter temporary delays or longer processing times while the rollout continues because of traffic volume. It said availability can differ by asset and network and that further updates would be shared through its official X account.

The latest expansion follows the phased restart that began on November 1, when Binance initially reopened withdrawals for 15 networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana and XRP, as described in the initial withdrawal reopening report. The exchange’s November 1 recovery notice said it had covered about 95% of the affected amount and would absorb the financial impact rather than pass the losses to customers.

The breach followed a months-long intrusion that Binance said involved compromised developer devices and a fake recruitment approach. The exchange’s account of the attack, including the malicious job interview used to target an engineer, described how attackers gained access before the October 29 theft. Reuters reported on November 14 that Binance had pledged to repay customers in full as it works to restore the remaining withdrawal services.
