FBI accuses North Korea of $6 billion crypto theft from Binance

The FBI has accused North Korea of stealing over $6 billion from Binance, marking it as the largest crypto heist to date. Binance confirmed it will cover the losses, having set aside $6.34 billion to replenish stolen funds. The FBI linked the hack to a North Korean group called TraderTraitor, which previously stole $1.5 billion from Bybit. Following the news, major cryptocurrencies saw significant price drops. Binance is working to resolve the attack, which involved multiple breaches, while concerns grow over AI's potential impact on cybersecurity. TraderTraitor is associated with the notorious Lazarus Group, known for past cyberattacks.
