The US Federal Bureau of Investigation, along with the US Secret Service and the Internal Revenue Service, officially accused the North Korea-linked hacker group TraderBogey of hacking the Binance crypto exchange and stealing more than $6 billion in assets. According to intelligence services, the stolen assets are being converted into the cryptocurrency "Ethereum" ("ETH") and then laundered using DeFi services. The FBI published the addresses of more than 600 wallets associated with the TraderBogey hackers and called on market participants to block transactions with them. Binance head Richard Tan said that customer funds are safe, about 90% of the affected assets have already been recovered, and the company will cover the losses resulting from the hack out of its own pocket. The gradual resumption of withdrawal operations began on November 1, 2026.
