North Korea denies US accusations of stealing cryptocurrencies from Binance

North Korea has rejected US allegations linking it to a multibillion-dollar cryptocurrency theft involving Binance, accusing Washington of using cybercrime allegations to undermine its international reputation.

Kim Yo Jong, the influential sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and a senior official of the Workers' Party, called the allegations a "serious political provocation."

She said the FBI was trying to portray North Korea as a "cybercriminal state" by claiming that a Pyongyang-backed hacker group was involved in the theft.

"The US claim is absurd rhetoric and nothing new," Kim said in a statement. She accused Washington of regularly blaming North Korea for major international cyberattacks without providing credible evidence.

Kim also mentioned US allegations linking Pyongyang to last year's cryptocurrency theft involving the Bybit exchange.

North Korea has consistently denied US accusations of state-sponsored cyberattacks, while Washington has accused North Korean hacking groups of stealing digital assets to fund the country's weapons programs.

Kim suggested that Washington could benefit from recovering stolen cryptocurrencies, referring to US plans to create a strategic reserve for cryptocurrencies.

She said Pyongyang was closely monitoring US provocations and that Washington's hostile stance could prompt it to reconsider its stance on some issues.
