North Korean hackers behind Binance heist among world's top crypto thieves

Experts say North Korean hackers likely behind the record $6.3 billion theft from Binance are among the world's most prolific crypto thieves, with proceeds funding weapons programmes. TRM Labs and Chainalysis attribute the heist to the TraderTraitor group. Including a $387 million Bitget hit in September, North Korea's crypto thefts total roughly $13.5 billion, a DTEX researcher said.
