North Korean hackers working for the regime may have stolen billions of dollars from Binance customers
North Korean hackers allegedly infiltrated Binance, stealing $6.3 billion. The company claims to have frozen $3 billion of the stolen funds and promises full compensation. Analysts suggest that $2.4 billion may never be recovered. Initial reports indicated a breach via an unattended laptop, but Binance later stated multiple attack vectors were used. This incident marks the largest cryptocurrency theft to date, surpassing a previous $1.5 billion heist. The impact on Bitcoin's price is being closely monitored, with only a slight decrease observed so far.
