What happened?
New details have surfaced around the record $6.3 billion Binance theft. According to the claim, attackers used a fake copy of Homebrew and a fake job interview process to break into an engineer's Mac.
Supply chain or social engineering?
Homebrew is a widely used package manager for installing software on macOS. A counterfeit version being deployed points to a possible supply-chain attack on a tool developers trust. The fake job interview, meanwhile, stands out as a social-engineering method used to reach the target directly.
Why it matters
Crypto exchanges and developer teams are prime targets for attacks on both the software supply chain and employees' personal devices. If confirmed, the claim would suggest a large-scale heist may have hinged on a human-focused trap rather than a technical flaw.
What remains unclear
The details are at the claim level; the full attack chain and verified technical evidence are not public. The picture may change as official statements clarify the situation.
