General Kim does no bad things? Binance stolen 200 billion crypto assets, North Korea pointed as black hand, Kim Yo-jong angrily refutes ZH金將軍不做壞事? 幣安遭竊兩千億加密資產 北韓遭指黑手 金與正怒駁斥
Newtalk新聞 全球最大加密貨幣交易所幣安(Binance)上月30日遭駭客攻擊。據美國區塊鏈分析公司TRM Labs調查,駭客竊走價約63.6億美元(約新台幣2,074億元)的加密資產,創下史上最大加密貨幣竊盜紀錄。美國聯邦調查局(FBI)指認,幕後黑手為北韓相關駭客組織TraderTraitor。不過,北韓最高領導人金正恩胞妹金與正今(3)日出面駁斥,怒嗆美國主張荒誕無稽。 北韓官媒《朝中社》今刊登〈朝鮮勞動黨中央委員會副部長金與正發表談話〉。針對美國指控幣安遭竊幕後黑手,金與正怒嗆美國主張荒誕無稽,更稱每次國際發生各類所謂「網路犯罪」事件時,美國就不分青紅皂白地將其與被含掛鉤,企圖向國際社會散播對北韓的錯誤認知。 北韓最高領導人金正恩胞妹金與正。 圖 : 翻攝朝中社(資料照) 金與正指出,早在去年,美國就曾將加密貨幣交易所「Bybit」發生的駭客攻擊事件歸咎於北韓。而美國誤導國際輿論,將世界各地發生的網路詐騙行為全數渲染成北韓所為,顯然構成對北韓的嚴重政治挑釁,並損害北韓國際形象,貶低北韓的尊嚴與國威,是一項居心不良的企圖,更是延伸至新領域的另一項嚴重侵犯北韓主權行為。 她強調,北韓堅決反對在屬於全人類共同財富的網路空間中發生的一切惡意行為,並徹底排斥任何將網路問題政治化、藉此作為干涉他國內政工具的企圖,而這始終是平壤政府一貫的政策立場。延伸閱讀:9.5小時被提取近46.5億美元! 駭客盜取事件後 幣安掀「撤離潮」20分鐘盜逾60億美元加密貨幣! 北韓駭客疑感情詐騙滲透幣安工程師 川普這樣說....幣安遭駭後掀提款潮!不到10小時淨流出36.4億美元 趙長鵬急喊話民進黨推5大專業人士出戰鄉鎮市長 徐國勇:盼國人支持國軍半個月走3條命 藍黨團轟「官僚殺人」要顧立雄公開道歉
