Blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs attributed the attack to an elite North Korean hacking unit. TRM documented 207 hacks in the first six months of the year, involving nearly $1 billion in digital assets—the highest number of incidents in any six-month period to date. The digital asset theft from Binance far surpassed the previous record, a $1.5 billion attack on rival exchange Bybit in February 2025.
