Bhutan has become the first country to launch a nationwide tourism payment infrastructure powered by cryptocurrency, marking a significant milestone in national-level blockchain adoption. The initiative, officially announced on May 7, 2025, is a collaboration between Binance Pay and Bhutan’s state-owned DK Bank, a subsidiary of Druk Holding & Investments.Bhutan Enables Crypto Payments Across Its Tourism SectorThe new system allows international tourists to use cryptocurrencies—including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), BNB, and select stablecoins—to pay for a wide range of tourism-related services. These include visa fees, air travel, accommodations, tour guides, and even purchases at local markets. All transactions are processed through the Binance Pay platform.The rollout spans over 100 merchants, including businesses in Bhutan’s more remote regions. The integrated digital payment system is intended to simplify travel for crypto users while offering vendors alternative access to global payment networks.Digital Inclusion and National Policy ObjectivesThe initiative is part of Bhutan’s broader strategy to leverage blockchain technology to support financial inclusion and reduce reliance on traditional banking infrastructure. By enabling crypto transactions at scale, the project also offers small and medium-sized enterprises access to global capital flows.DK Bank’s leadership stated that the system aligns with Bhutan’s long-term economic development plans, which prioritize technology, self-reliance, and digital innovation as tools for sustainable growth.Global Implications for Crypto AdoptionBhutan’s crypto-enabled tourism system is a rare example of state-level integration of digital assets in public infrastructure, potentially setting a precedent for other countries exploring blockchain for national payment solutions. It arrives amid growing global interest in cryptocurrency's utility for cross-border payments, digital identity, and economic empowerment.

90% of Stolen Crypto Recovered Through Rapid Response and Cross-Chain CoordinationBinance announced today that it successfully helped trace, block, and recover approximately $6.1 million worth of crypto assets following the recent exploit targeting decentralized exchange platform KiloEx.The quick response involved a coordinated effort across the Binance security teams, BNB Chain ecosystem partners, cross-chain bridge providers, and law enforcement agencies, resulting in the recovery of about 90% of the stolen assets.Overview of the KiloEx ExploitOn April 15, 2025, KiloEx suffered a sophisticated price manipulation attack exploiting vulnerabilities in its price oracle system.The attacker manipulated price feeds using a wallet funded via Tornado Cash, an anonymizing service.By exploiting cross-chain structures across Base, BNB Chain, and Taiko, the hacker withdrew artificially inflated profits, draining an estimated $8.44 million.Binance's Response TimelineWithin 30 minutes of the incident being flagged by the community, Binance security teams activated an emergency protocol.The team immediately traced suspicious wallet addresses and blacklisted them internally to block any further fund movements.Cross-chain bridge providers were contacted to restrict hacker activity across multiple networks.On-chain forensic analysis combined open-source and proprietary tools to track and build a behavioral profile of the attacker.Recovery Efforts and ResolutionWith strong evidence gathered, Binance and KiloEx initiated targeted communications with the attacker via on-chain messages, simultaneously filing a report with law enforcement.After 24 hours of negotiation efforts, the attacker agreed to return 90% of the stolen funds in exchange for a 10% white-hat bounty and a cease of further legal action.Binance highlighted that ecosystem-wide collaboration, swift technical analysis, and law enforcement pressure were crucial to this successful recovery.Broader ImplicationsThe KiloEx incident underscores the growing sophistication of cross-chain exploits but also demonstrates the maturing resilience of the crypto ecosystem through real-time collaboration between centralized exchanges, DeFi platforms, and regulatory authorities.Binance reaffirmed its commitment to protecting users and maintaining trust across Web3 platforms by responding swiftly to security incidents.
