in case you missed it, Binance is an altcoin exchange not a bitcoin exchange. so your topic doesn't even make sense! you talk about hacker gaining access to people API (which is not correct by the way) and then manipulating the market but then talk about bitcoin price moving up $500! not to mention that a $500 rise or more precisely a 7% rise is not a big deal at all. it is one of the most common percentage rises that bitcoin has specially when it is coming out of a long downtrend and prior manipulation keeping the price down.
