Here's a really quick primer on what's what: BSC, or Binance Smart Chain, is a cryptocurrency platform for running decentralized apps, similar to Ethereum. BNB, or Binance Coin, is the cryptocurrency issued by Binance; think of it as Ethereum's ether. And a bridge is a project that lets you move funds from one crypto platform (chain) to another.

According to samczsun's analysis, the attacker leveraged a bug in the BSC Token Hub to forge arbitrary, allowing them to mint (create) BNB coins out of thin air.

Binance CEO Changpeng "CZ" Zhao confirmed the hack shortly thereafter. "An exploit on a cross-chain bridge, BSC Token Hub, resulted in extra BNB. We have asked all validators to temporarily suspend BSC. The issue is contained now. Your funds are safe. We apologize for the inconvenience and will provide further updates accordingly," he tweeted.

While samcszun claims the stolen amount is much larger (and this is corroborated by actual transactions on chain), CZ claims that the "current impact estimate" is around $100 million. In an official post on Reddit, Binance said that the "initial estimate for funds taken off BSC are between $100 - $110 million," and an estimated $7 million has already been frozen (meaning the hacker cannot move the coins). The discrepancy in numbers is likely due to Binance referring to the funds the hacker managed to move to other chains or make inaccessible in other ways.
