North Korea Denies Involvement In Binance Hack-Questions the US
Summary
North Korea denied FBI allegations that the TraderTraitor group, linked by US authorities to Pyongyang, carried out a reported $6.3 billion Binance crypto theft. Kim Yo Jong called the attribution politically motivated and suggested recovered funds might reveal who was responsible, but offered no evidence of US involvement. The FBI identified addresses connected to the stolen assets and urged crypto services to block transfers. Blockchain investigators cite similarities with previous North Korean-linked attacks, though full forensic evidence has not been made public. Binance and investigators continue tracing the funds; responsibility remains unresolved.
