The FBI has publicly attributed the largest theft in cryptocurrency history to North Korea. In a statement issued Saturday, the bureau said North Korean actors were behind the roughly $6 billion hack of crypto exchange Binance, marking the first official US confirmation of responsibility for the breach. The attribution is likely to intensify scrutiny of state-linked crypto theft and sanctions enforcement.
Why now: It is the first official US confirmation of responsibility for crypto's biggest-ever theft, and the news is spreading rapidly.
