How North Korean hackers stole $1.5 billion in crypto
Hackers thought to be working for the North Korean regime have successfully cashed out hundreds of millions of dollars of their record-breaking $1.5 billion crypto heist.
The criminals, known as the Lazarus Group, swiped a huge haul of digital tokens in an audacious and remarkable hack on the crypto exchange ByBit last month.
Since then, they have been in a cat-and-mouse game with the company and legions of crypto fans trying to stop them from turning the coins into usable cash.
The Lazarus Group is accused of a litany of huge hacks, allegedly to make money for the hermit nation’s weapons program.
