North Korea Dismisses US Claims It Behind Binance Heist
Original: North Korea Says US Allegations Linking It to Binance Heist Are 'Absurd Rhetoric,' KCNA Says
North Korea has rejected American allegations that it was behind the theft of cryptocurrency from Binance, calling the accusations 'absurd rhetoric,' according to state media KCNA. The US had linked North Korean hackers to the heist, one of the largest crypto thefts to date. Pyongyang routinely denies involvement in cyber thefts that Western officials say fund its weapons programmes.
Why now: Tensions over state-sponsored crypto theft attributed to North Korean hackers remain a live source of US–North Korea friction.
