North Korea Dismisses US Claims It Was Behind Binance Heist
Original: North Korea Says US Allegations Linking It to Binance Heist Are 'Absurd Rhetoric'
North Korea has rejected American allegations linking it to a heist involving cryptocurrency exchange Binance, calling the claims 'absurd rhetoric'. The exchange of accusations adds to long-running US assertions that North Korean hacking groups have stolen billions in cryptocurrency to fund weapons programmes, and it further sharpens tensions between Washington and Pyongyang.
Why now: US accusations tying North Korea to a major crypto theft touch on sanctions, cybercrime and rising geopolitical tensions.
