**New Record for Crypto Theft by North Korea in 2024**

- In 2024, North Korea set a new record for crypto theft! With a total of $1.34 billion from 47 incidents, they successfully doubled the amount stolen from the previous year. 💰

- North Korean hackers are getting smarter, especially in large-scale attacks. Where they used to only get crumbs, now they are playing in the big leagues, stealing more than $100 million per incident!

- North Korean IT workers are also getting creative. They infiltrated crypto and Web3 companies under fake identities, stole confidential information, and made $88 million from their actions.

- Although North Korea's dominance declined in late 2024, they were still responsible for 61% of the total $2.2 billion in crypto stolen this year. Does this mean they are turning their attention to other projects? 🤔
