Original: Crypto firm Binance covers 90% of losses after $6.3B hack

Crypto exchange Binance says it will compensate users for 90% of losses following a hack estimated at $6.3 billion, one of the largest thefts ever reported in the cryptocurrency industry. The exchange says it will absorb most of the damage itself rather than passing the full cost to affected customers. The scale of the breach and the unusual compensation arrangement are drawing wide attention and debate about security across the crypto sector.
