Nov 5 (Reuters) - ‌Binance and ​Deribit ​said on Thursday they have removed all API ‌keys linked to SignalPlus after the digital ⁠asset options and derivatives trading infrastructure ‌platform reported a potential ‌security issue.

Binance said its own systems were unaffected, adding that user ​funds remain safe.

Derivatives exchange Deribit said it found no ⁠indication its systems or data were affected after ​an investigation.

"If you use SignalPlus for any other exchange platform, ​it's time to revoke ‌all your API keys," Binance founder Changpeng Zhao ⁠said in a post on X.

Last week, Binance customers pulled $3.64 billion, or ⁠2.1% of its assets, as the world's ​biggest cryptocurrency exchange went back online on Sunday after hackers the FBI links ‌to North Korea stole billions from the platform. The ‌exchange said it covered 95% ⁠of the $6.3 ‌billion of stolen ​assets.
