Why it matters to readers
For 79th Vault users, the report concerns token theft and large asset transfers, which may relate to protocol asset security. The 30 tokens BNB transferred to KuCoin also provide a point for monitoring subsequent fund flows. The central bank's statement clarifies its policy position on the CNY exchange rate regime and competitive currency devaluation.
If you hold 79AU or use 79th Vault, you should monitor subsequent statements from the project team, but do not assess whether the funds can be recovered solely on the basis of this summary.BNB is one of the assets received in exchange for the stolen tokens; a transfer to an exchange does not mean that the original text has proven that they were sold.

The original text did not provide relevant on-chain addresses, transaction hashes, or a project announcement, so the attack and fund flows cannot be independently verified from this evidence.
