Binance hit by record $6.3B hack, N. Korea blamed
Binance, the world's largest crypto exchange, suffered what analysts call the biggest crypto heist ever, with hackers stealing about $6.3 billion (Yonhap and Korea Times report $6.36 billion). Blockchain firm TRM Labs says North Korean hackers were behind the raid, moving funds out of Binance wallets; Yonhap and KBS World carry the attribution. The exchange said the attacker may have accessed service containers via an engineer's laptop and submitted unauthorized withdrawals, and has frozen about $3 billion in assets with losses to be covered by its insurance fund (SAFU) and company funds, per KBS World. Bitcoin sank below $80,000 into the $77,000 range as the breach rattled markets, Business Korea reports. Korean outlets frame the hack as a global market shock, with Business Korea noting a ripple effect across domestic and foreign exchanges, and Korea Times pieces examining how crypto insurance works and whether investors will rethink risks.
