Elon Musk reacted to reports of the Binance security incident with a short post on October 29: “Everyday is Zeroday.” He quoted The Kobeissi Letter’s account of suspicious outflows from exchange-linked wallets, bringing the incident to his audience on X.
Everyday is Zeroday
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 29, 2026
The phrase plays on the cybersecurity term zero-day. The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology defines a zero-day attack as one exploiting a previously unknown hardware, firmware or software vulnerability. Musk’s wording suggests a constant stream of newly emerging security threats.
His post supplied no technical findings and does not establish that an undisclosed vulnerability caused the Binance incident. Our transaction analysis covers an EIP-7702 delegation before a Binance-labelled Ethereum wallet was drained. How the relevant signatures were obtained remains unknown.
The reaction follows Tether’s confirmation of a USDT freeze exceeding $1.567 billion and Circle’s confirmation of more than $800 million in frozen USDC. Those issuer statements describe containment measures, rather than a final calculation of losses or completed customer reimbursements.
Binance’s statement says user funds are completely safe while its teams investigate the potential security issue. Musk’s remark adds a public reaction to that developing story; it does not verify the multibillion-dollar loss claims in the report he quoted.
