The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on Saturday accused North Korea of being behind the theft of digital assets worth more than $6 billion from cryptocurrency exchange Binance.
The FBI said malicious actors linked to North Korea had been detected attempting to conceal the origin of the stolen assets by converting them into the Ethereum cryptocurrency.
The agency added that the assets are expected to undergo further stages of money laundering in an effort to obscure their origin and make their movements harder to trace.
