A U.S.-based blockchain intelligence firm says a North Korean unit was likely behind the hack that impacted more than $6 billion US on Binance.
The company said on X Friday that an initial investigation suggested the incident may have involved a compromised laptop, but that a subsequent investigation uncovered additional "points of breach." 

And unfortunately the crypto bros will not suffer... the customers will, no matter what binance says.
