In Taleja, a hoax was debunked that Binance was hacked with the help of a DPRK spy - in this story, an exchange engineer met a North Korean girl, left her alone with a laptop, and turned out to be an agent of Kim Jong Un. Nice, but no. The story started with a viral tweet attributed to the ZachXBT blockchain win. The problem is that ZachXBT wrote nothing of the sort: his investigation was about the transfer of stolen funds through THORChain and the connection with the $388 million Bitget hack. No word on any girl. Technically, the legend doesn't add up either: the stock market doesn't have a "withdraw $6 billion" button on the engineer's desktop. There are multi-level certificates and key separation, and the exchange itself confirmed that there were multiple points of breach and the approach of one engineer has nothing to do with it. But yes, of course: a girl jumped for five minutes and took the GDP of a small country from her. A slap on the nose.
