Elliptic says North Korean hackers are using newly created memecoins to launder cryptocurrency stolen in last month's $6.4 billion Binance hack. Elliptic found that the hackers created six memecoins on NEAR, with each memecoin paired against NEAR tokens in a separate liquidity pool. Elliptic chief scientist and co-founder Tom Robinson said the transactions remain traceable but delay investigators. Chainalysis attributes the hack to TraderTraitor, a North Korean cybercrime group believed to operate within the state-sponsored Lazarus Group.
