Crypto giant Binance attempting to recover $6.3bn stolen in hack linked to North Korea

[battalion25]

This is most likely an inside job.

Done by the CIA and the goverment together with the Binance heads due to the current financial issues. This smells like Trump, Kushner and his folks.. This is something they could pull off

What a crazy world this is!

Many Westerners mock North Korea for lacking the internet, ridiculing it as a primitive, Stone Age society... and yet, now they claim that North Korea has hackers......

Where does North Korea’s hacking expertise come from? And where do the essential supporting platforms they rely on originate? Are we really to believe that a group of primitive, "stone-age" individuals—people who might as well be rubbing sticks together to make fire—could launch attacks against the world’s most prominent and sophisticated cryptocurrency organizations?

Is there even any point in continuing to hold annual global hacking competitions?

This is state sponsored not some teen in their parent's basement.

North Korea floods the world with counterfeit money...including the Chinese Yuan of their "five thousand year old enemy".
This isn't in somebody's basement either. These are sophisticated worldwide operations.
