rvivek(@rvivek):This is a crazy story. The Binance hack was orchestrated with a fake job interview! A Binance engineer got an email about a project from someone who looked like a real HR rep with a solid social media profile. After the initial chat, they were asked to do a take-home assignment by downloading a code repository. And you know what happens when you download code from the web. This is a new level of psychological hack. Wouldn't have happened if you used HackerRank in a well sandboxed environment.
