FBI Blames N. Korea for $6B Binance Crypto Theft
The U.S. FBI has formally attributed the theft of over $6 billion in cryptocurrency from Binance, the world's largest exchange, to North Korea, calling it a record heist. Yonhap reports the FBI said North Korean hackers stole an estimated $6.36 billion, and the Dong-A Ilbo adds that the FBI detected signs of money laundering, including converting stolen assets into Ethereum. U.S. President Donald Trump said Washington is verifying North Korean involvement, according to KBS World. Blockchain analysis firm TRM Labs first blamed North Korea, stating an attacker moved approximately $6.36 billion out of Binance wallets, as reported by the Korea Times. Korean outlets are framing this as the largest crypto hacking case on record, with the FBI's official designation marking a significant escalation in U.S. accusations against Pyongyang.
