Cryptocurrencies: North Korea denies being involved in the hacking of the Binance platform, rejecting FBI accusations

North Korea has strongly denied allegations from the FBI linking it to the $6.3 billion hack of Binance, calling the claims absurd. Kim Yo Jong, sister of leader Kim Jong Un, criticized the accusations as a political provocation aimed at damaging North Korea's international image. The FBI attributed the hack to a North Korean hacking group known as TraderTraitor, which is also linked to previous cybercrimes. Kim Yo Jong asserted that these allegations violate North Korea's sovereignty and emphasized the country's commitment to countering malicious cyber activities. Reports indicate that North Korea's cyber warfare unit has thousands of members operating internationally.
