Dark Web Informer suggested that the leaked Binance data may not have come from the exchange itself. Instead, they pointed to poor user habits, such as clicking unknown links or downloading suspicious files, as likely causes.

Additionally, Dark Web Informer suggested that a seller going by the name "AKM69" claimed to have a database of 100,000 Gemini user records.
