Trump Links Binance Breach Probe to North Korea

Donald Trump said U.S. authorities are examining whether North Korea was behind the cyberattack that hit Binance and caused $6.3 billion in losses.


The president noted that Binance maintains the situation is under control, while confirming it was a deliberate hack and that an investigation is underway.


Blockchain firms TRM Labs and Chainalysis attributed the intrusion to the TraderTraitor group tied to Pyongyang. The same actors are believed to have stolen roughly $1.5 billion from Bybit in February 2025.


Washington has not yet issued any formal accusation against North Korea.
