Binance has issued a security reminder stating that withdrawal services are being restored in phases, and criminals may take this opportunity to commit fraud. They may impersonate Binance through private messages, emails, group chats, or even in the notes of small transfers, claiming they can help you "accelerate withdrawals," "prioritize processing," "receive compensation," or transfer your assets to a so-called "Binance vault."To ensure the safety of your assets, please remember that Binance will never: proactively contact you to inquire about your account or funds; offer or sell priority slots in the withdrawal queue; charge fees under the pretext of unlocking a network or asset; ask you to connect your wallet, sign authorization, or transfer funds to "unlock" withdrawals; request you to connect your wallet, sign or authorize any operation, or transfer funds to "unlock" withdrawals; ask you to transfer assets to any "vault," "secure account," "custodial wallet," or address provided by others; send links related to "qualification verification," "status inquiry," or "compensation collection"; ask for your password, 2FA verification code, or mnemonic phrase; guide you to unofficial websites to check proof of reserves (PoR); or offer paid "asset recovery" services.Do not connect your wallet or sign or authorize any unknown requests casually. These actions may grant third parties access to or the ability to transfer your assets. Once malicious authorization or transactions are completed, your assets may be at risk of theft, and related on-chain transactions are usually irreversible. If your withdrawal is still being processed, please check the progress within the Binance App. Do not trust anyone claiming they can pay to accelerate withdrawals, purchase priority processing qualifications, or complete withdrawals in advance through other means.

According to CNN, on the eve of the U.S. midterm elections, the Democratic Party is close to regaining a majority in the Senate, but several key seats remain in a deadlock, and deep red states could tilt toward either party.CNN has expanded its list of "most likely to flip" to 11 seats, adding South Carolina, Texas, Kansas, and other battlegrounds that were almost overlooked earlier this year. The Democrats need to flip 4 Republican-held seats and hold all their own seats to secure a Senate majority.Reports indicate that CNN's poll aggregation shows Trump's approval rating at about 34%, with issues like the economy, the Iran war, and corruption driving Democratic mobilization.In the final month, Republicans spent about $560 million on election ads in the aforementioned 11 races, while Democrats spent about $521 million; excluding Georgia and North Carolina, the Republican advantage is even greater.The top-ranked races include: North Carolina Democrat Roy Cooper leading Republican Michael Whatley by about 14 percentage points in the High Point/YouGov final poll, listed as the most likely to flip seat; former Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown averaging a lead of about 5 percentage points; Texas's James Talarico facing Ken Paxton, with CNN's aggregation showing no clear leader, but recent New York Times/Siena and CNN polls indicate Talarico is ahead, with Musk-related spending accounting for over $168 million of Republican ads in the state. The remaining list includes Maine, Alaska, Kansas, Iowa, Michigan, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Georgia.

Binance Co-CEO and co-founder He Yi posted on X, stating that the current top priority is to ensure the safety of the environment, after which users can withdraw funds, and Binance can resume operations.

She thanked users for their support at the end of her message.
