🚨 BREAKING NEWS: North Korean hackers created their own memecoins to launder money from the $6.3 billion Binance hack! Elliptic has just exposed their latest scheme: from Nov. 5–7, the TraderTraitor group created 6 memecoins on $NEAR —FUK, MEILI, SINU... Each token cost only about $90 to create. Then they bought and sold them among themselves through liquidity pools to turn stolen funds into “trading profits.” 117,000 NEAR (about $430,000) passed through these 6 junk tokens. But this is still less than 0.01% of the total amount stolen — 11.8 million NEAR (about $43.7 million) remains untouched. Binance $BNB said it has recovered about 98% of the losses. But this homemade memecoin laundering scheme shows that hackers are getting more creative — and more dangerous than ever. Be careful with unfamiliar memecoins.

This sounds made up, but it actually happened😂😂 Back in August, Unchained founder Laura Shin posed as a recruiter to interview a suspected North Korean crypto developer. During the interview, she asked him to say something negative about Kim Jong Un. He stumbled over his words, then the call cut out. Afterward, he kept coming up with excuses to avoid answering. So is “say something bad about Kim Jong Un” about to become a standard question in remote job interviews? 🤣 The new screening test for North Korean hackers, lol #AI #Hack

Binance Security Incident Raises Serious Questions About AI and Wallet Protection A reported security incident involving Binance has highlighted a new and concerning type of cybersecurity threat. According to Reuters, the attacker allegedly exploited a compromised computer and used an internal AI tool to gain control over wallets. What makes this incident particularly concerning is the reported combination of compromised devices, AI-assisted access, and wallet security vulnerabilities. It shows how attackers may use legitimate internal tools as part of sophisticated cyberattacks. As AI becomes more deeply integrated into crypto infrastructure, protecting internal systems, access permissions, and sensitive wallet operations is becoming increasingly important. The bigger takeaway is clear: Security risks in crypto are evolving, and even advanced platforms must continuously strengthen their defenses. AI can improve efficiency, but it also introduces new security challenges that cannot be ignored. #Binance / #Hack

🚨 How Did Hackers Infiltrate Binance’s Wallet Infrastructure? The reported attack highlights how dangerous social engineering can be, even for major crypto platforms. According to the details, attackers first impersonated company recruiters and approached a Binance engineer through a fake hiring process. After two rounds of interviews, they sent the engineer a test assignment to download. Hidden inside the assignment was malicious code that went undetected by security systems. Once the engineer’s computer was compromised, the attackers reportedly used an internal AI tool to move further into the company's environment, access other employees' devices, and steal login credentials. The situation escalated on October 29, when the attackers deployed a malicious container and targeted the system responsible for signing cryptocurrency transactions. The biggest takeaway? Security isn't just about protecting servers and wallets. One compromised employee device can potentially become the entry point to much larger systems. In crypto, even the strongest infrastructure is only as secure as its weakest access point. 🔐 #Binance #Hack

❖BINANCE SEEKS RETURN OF 8,426 ⟠ETH AND 74.56 MILLION 🔷ARB FROZEN ON ARBITRUM❗ Ξ The exchange submitted a formal proposal to the Arbitrum DAO to recover the assets frozen after the hot wallet exploit. Binance $BNB submitted an official proposal to the Arbitrum DAO requesting the release of 8,425.997 ETH and 74.56 million ARB. The funds were frozen by the Arbitrum Security Council on October 30 in an emergency action following the attack on the exchange’s hot wallet. The cryptocurrencies are currently held at an intermediate frozen address and can only be moved with DAO approval. Binance is not asking for new funds from the DAO treasury — only the return of assets that have already been frozen. The governance process is expected to take about 7 weeks or more (forum discussion + temperature check + on-chain vote). The exchange said it will cover users’ losses with SAFU and its own funds. Meanwhile, Binance is gradually resuming withdrawals and has removed all API keys linked to the SignalPlus platform following a security alert. This is one of the largest requests to recover funds through DAO governance in 2026. The case tests Arbitrum’s ability to handle emergency freezes and returns transparently. As Binance tries to recover the assets, market confidence in the security of exchanges and bridges remains under pressure. The decision by ARB holders will be closely watched by the entire community. 💬 Should Binance’s proposal to recover the frozen $ETH and $ARB be approved by the Arbitrum DAO? #Binance #Arbitrum #Hack

The Most Dangerous Hacker in Human History!The FBI Issues an International Arrest Warrant Against North Korea's Cyber Mastermind Imagine being accused of helping orchestrate cyberattacks that shook Hollywood, robbed one of the world's financial institutions, and brought hospitals across the globe to a standstill. Meet Pak Jin-hyok — the North Korean computer programmer wanted by the FBI.

The Most Dangerous Hacker in Human History!

The FBI Issues an International Arrest Warrant Against North Korea's Cyber Mastermind
Imagine being accused of helping orchestrate cyberattacks that shook Hollywood, robbed one of the world's financial institutions, and brought hospitals across the globe to a standstill.
Meet Pak Jin-hyok — the North Korean computer programmer wanted by the FBI.
And here's what makes this story terrifying: U.S. authorities have linked him to a state-sponsored hacking conspiracy responsible for some of the most notorious cyber operations of the modern era.
THE CYBERATTACKS THAT PUT HIM ON THE FBI'S MOST-WANTED LIST:

A devastating attack that exposed confidential corporate emails, employee information, and unreleased Hollywood films. The breach sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry.
2. THE $81 MILLION BANGLADESH BANK HEIST (2016)

In 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice charged three North Korean hackers, including Pak Jin-hyok, in connection with an alleged conspiracy involving more than $1.3 BILLION in attempted and successful thefts and extortion.
