B.t.w. I have contacted Binance - where my stolen BTC ended up on one of their addresses - and after proving (with screenshots, videos from wallet opening and wallet/TX history) that I am the owner of the address from which the BTC got stolen, they offered to refund me - but only if I open a Binance account (they will send it to my Binance address)! They said the owner of this Binance BTC address (obviously their customer=the hacker!) agreed to send it back!!! WTF

Has anyone had this experience? The don't want to give me his identity nor the type of attack how the BTCs got removed! This looks very dodgy and supports my theory of a malicious server attack / vulnerability in Electrum which they maybe want to hide... Also I think a criminal/police investigation over several jurisdictions (me, Binance HQ, Binance server locations, TX server locations / mining pool, location of Binance customer) would lead to nothing.
