Newtalk新聞 多年來，北韓政府持續以國家級組織的規模支持網路駭客活動，對全球各國進行金融竊盜與情報刺探，近年也逐漸將目標轉向加密貨幣市場，相關問題也引發國際輿論的廣泛關注。近期又傳出消息稱，北韓駭客成功駭入加密貨幣交易所「幣安」( Binance )，盜取價值超過 60 億美元的虛擬貨幣，誇張的事件不只驚動了美國政府，也引發全球網友的熱烈討論。 X 推主「小龍先生」指出，在幣安虛擬貨幣資產遭到盜竊後，美國總統川普隨即透過社群媒體發布貼文，表達對相關事件的關注。川普表示，參與此次攻擊事件的駭客僅費時 20 分鐘，就從幣安捲走價值數十億美元的資產，強調此次的事件是一場極其複雜、多點滲透的「國家級行動」。川普也透露稱，策劃此次攻擊行動的組織很可能是北韓知名駭客集團「拉薩路集團」旗下的「交易叛徒」( TraderTraitor )。 「小龍先生」補充表示，事件發生後，美國聯邦調查局 ( FBI )、國稅局等政府單位紛紛採取行動，向全球加密貨幣交易所發出封鎖令，試圖「拔掉網路線」的方式切斷駭客集團「洗白」資產的途徑。「小龍先生」認為，全球各國的加密貨幣交易所可能為了防止被駭客用來洗錢，大幅提升審查門檻，進一步加劇「散戶」們可能面對的風險。 然而，X 推主「cryptocapo」稱，截至當地時間 1 日下午，駭客組織已將價值約 1 億美元的 SOL 幣兌換為比特幣，並將半數竊得的資金兌換為其他貨幣後完成轉移。「cryptocapo」也對駭客將資金轉換為比特幣的行為感到擔憂，認為相關舉措可能讓市場進入最高警戒的狀態。 在針對相關事件展開調查後， FBI 於 31 日發布報告，證實相關事件可能是去年在加密貨幣平台「Bybit」竊取 15 億美元資產的組織「TraderTraitor」所為，並對可能涉及相關事件的北韓駭客朴鎮赫發布全球通緝。 FBI …

Newtalk新聞 全球最大加密貨幣交易所幣安（Binance）10 月 29 日遭駭客入侵！價值約 63 億美元（約新台幣 2006 億元）的加密貨幣遭竊，創下加密貨幣史上最大竊案紀錄。美國聯邦調查局（FBI）證實，這起攻擊是由北韓政府支持的駭客組織「TraderTraitor」所發動。 《路透社》報導，幣安 31 日在社群平台 X 發文指出，公司已透過購買相同種類的加密貨幣，補回約九成遭竊資產。至於剩餘 10%，由於涉及市場流動性較低的代幣，短時間內難以大量購回，需更多時間處理。幣安共同執行長鄧偉政（Richard Teng）強調，公司將承擔此次資安事件造成的全部損失，避免用戶蒙受財務損害。 這起天價竊案發生在美東時間 29 日下午 4 時 20 分左右，當時幣安偵測到大量異常交易，發現公司錢包內的加密貨幣正快速流向外部帳戶，短短約半小時內竟有數十億美元資產被轉走。《美聯社》報導，FBI 於 31 日發布聲明，正式將攻擊歸咎於北韓支持的「TraderTraitor」組織。該組織去年也被指涉及加密貨幣交易所 Bybit 價值 15 億美元的竊案。FBI 指出，駭客正將此次竊取的資產主要轉換成以太幣（Ethereum），未來可能透過去中心化金融平台及快速兌幣服務進一步洗錢，以掩蓋資金流向。 《金融時報》報導，駭客疑似先控制幣安一名工程師的筆記型電腦，再利用取得的系統權限繞過安全機制，向公司錢包發出未經授權的轉帳指令。鄧偉政透露，調查人員還發現用來清除入侵痕跡的惡意軟體，且受駭範圍可能不只一處，整起攻擊的完整過程仍待釐清。 …
