Binance wasn't hacked. A bunch of idiots gave their API keys to third party bots. The owner of the bots then hijacked their accounts for profit

That's not a very sophisticated hack, but it's technically a type of hacking. In the same way that if you leave your keys unlocked in your running car overnight and someone gets in an drives away with it, that's still theft.

You're right that it is technically a type of hack, but it isn't Binance that was hacked. It was some Binance users.
