The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) issued a security alert on October 31, officially attributing the October 29 hack of Binance, exceeding $6 billion, to North Korea's TraderTraitor operation. The FBI observed that the attackers primarily converted the stolen assets into Ethereum and anticipates they will obfuscate the funds through decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and instant exchange services. To thwart these efforts, the FBI released hundreds of associated cryptocurrency addresses and urged THORNode operators, RPC node operators, DeFi platforms, instant exchange service providers, and other service providers to block transactions involving these wallets.
