🚨 Historic seizure! #EEUU seizes more than $1.2 billion stolen by North Korea 🇺🇸💻
The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) seized more than $1.2 billion in cryptocurrency previously stolen from the Binance platform.
❓ What exactly happened?
The DOJ obtained legal authorization to seize more than $1.2 billion in digital assets stolen from Binance. This haul is part of a massive $6.3 billion attack that took place in October 2026.
🕵️♂️ Who was behind the theft?
The perpetrators are hackers linked to North Korea (the Lazarus/TraderTraitor group), who operate to fund the regime’s illicit programs and evade international sanctions.
🔍 How did they recover the funds?
Thanks to the public traceability of the blockchain, agencies such as the FBI and the Secret Service worked with stablecoin issuers to track and freeze the assets before they could be laundered.
🛡️ Are Binance users safe?
Yes. Binance activated its emergency fund (SAFU) after the attack to cover 100% of the losses, ensuring that no customer lost their money.
