Seoul Cautious as North Korea Denies Binance Hack Role
North Korea has denied any involvement in the $6.3 billion hack of Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, with Kim Yo-jong, the influential sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, dismissing the claims, KBS World reports. The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation has blamed North Korean hackers for the heist, and President Donald Trump has said Washington is verifying the involvement and would talk to North Korea if it is found to be behind the theft, according to KBS World and Yonhap. Korean crypto exchanges are on alert as signs emerge that the stolen assets are being laundered, with domestic exchanges seeking to respond, the Korea Times reports. Business Korea reports that a North Korean hacking group has begun executing thousands of fund transfers to launder assets worth approximately $6.3 billion through 12,000 wallets. The Korea Times says the record-breaking heist poses a serious threat to global security, while TRM Labs, a U.S. blockchain analysis firm, says North Korean hackers were behind the raid, moving approximately $6.36 billion out of Binance wallets.
