Binance customers withdrew $3.6bn (£2.7bn) of assets from the world's biggest cryptocurrency exchange as it reopened on Sunday following what is believed to be the largest hack in history.
The firm suspended all transactions in the wake of the incident, which impacted $6.3bn worth of digital assets.
Major organisations, including the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), have accused North Korea of being responsible for the cyber-attack.
Funds linked to the Binance hack continue to be laundered, according to Alex Zebrick, a senior investigator at Chainalysis who has been working with the firm and governments to get the stolen money back.
