TRX KCNA statement says US linking DPRK to Binance theft is a provocation
A KCNA press statement attributed to Kim Yo Jong, department director of the Workers' Party of Korea Central Committee, says billions of dollars in cryptocurrency was stolen from Binance and that the US has again linked the incident to the DPRK. The statement says the FBI is trying to brand the DPRK a "cyber criminal state" over the alleged involvement of a DPRK-supported hacking organization, and calls the US assertion "an absurd rhetoric and nothing new."
