👊The U.S. Treasury Department strikes hard to crack down on North Korean cryptocurrency money laundering
The U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) recently took tough measures to impose sanctions on two individuals and an entity company. These individuals and entities are accused of assisting North Korea in illegal money laundering activities.
Among them, the key figure Sim Hyon Sop was pointed out as an agent of North Korean financial institutions, planning money laundering schemes, including establishing shell companies and managing bank accounts to transfer illegal funds.
In addition, Chinese citizens Lu Huaying and Zhang Jian, who live in the UAE, were accused of facilitating North Korea or its agents since 2022, engaging in facilitating money laundering and cryptocurrency conversion services.
Currently, OFAC has included Lu Huaying, Zhang Jian and their UAE subsidiary Green Alpine Trading, LLC on the sanctions list, accusing them of supporting Sim's illegal activities.
Bradley Smith, acting undersecretary of the U.S. Treasury Department for terrorism and financial intelligence, said that North Korea uses complex criminal schemes to fund its weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programs. The U.S. Treasury Department will continue to disrupt the networks that fund the North Korean regime and work with the UAE and international partners to continue to crack down on financial networks that fund North Korea's "sabotage activities."
North Korean hackers have been accused of large-scale cryptocurrency thefts, causing serious damage to the industry. Related incidents include ZachXBT claiming in August that it hacked into 25 projects and stole $1.3 million; North Korean hackers associated with the Lazarus Group in October used loopholes to steal wallet credentials using fake NFT games; South Korean police confirmed in November that their organization planned the 2019 cryptocurrency robbery; and Radiant Capital recently confirmed that a hacker group associated with North Korea in October 2024 carried out a $50 million hacking attack on its DeFi platform.
However, in the face of these allegations, North Korea has always firmly opposed them, claiming that these so-called "sabotage activities" and "hacking attacks" by the United States are unwarranted accusations and a political manipulation by the United States.
💬Finally, what do you think of these US sanctions and North Korean hacker accusations? Do you think these measures can effectively curb illegal money laundering activities?

🚨 FBI issues warning: Beware of cyberattacks by North Korean hackers targeting the cryptocurrency industry
The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) recently issued a warning that North Korean hackers are "actively" attacking the cryptocurrency industry. The methods used by these cyber bad guys are super sophisticated, and even experts who know everything about cybersecurity may fall for them!
It is reported that their attacks are mainly through carefully designed social engineering strategies, such as pretending to be potential job opportunities or investment projects on social media X to approach targets. Once trust is established, they will take the opportunity to send malware into your device or company's network.
At the same time, these hackers will also impersonate celebrities, technical experts, and even recruiters on professional social networking sites, using various means to induce you to download applications or perform some seemingly normal operations. However, the false scenarios they create are very attractive to the target individuals, so it is difficult to see through.
Here, the FBI reminds all cryptocurrency companies and individuals to be vigilant and not to believe those seemingly tempting "opportunities". If you encounter suspicious situations, it is best to take timely measures to avoid unnecessary losses.
Finally, what measures have you taken to protect your digital assets? Is it a hardware wallet, multi-signature, or some other trick?
💬 As cyberattacks continue to escalate, how do you stay up to date on the latest threats and take appropriate protective measures? Leave your opinion in the comments section!

🚨 BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF hits a freezing point in terms of flow, North Korean hackers may become a new threat to fund management companies!
💰 BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF had zero capital flow on four of the last five trading days, and net outflows reached $13.5 million on August 29 alone.
📉 At the same time, the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in the United States are also facing capital outflow problems. Just on Tuesday, the Bitcoin ETF had an outflow of $287.78 million, and the Ethereum ETF had an outflow of $47.4 million.
📊 According to Farside Investors, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF has had no inflows since August 27, with $13.5 million outflows on August 29 alone. However, since its launch on January 11, the total net inflow of this ETF is still considerable, close to $21 billion.
📈 Currently, trading volume in the entire cryptocurrency market also appears to be somewhat sluggish. Total volume on Tuesday was $1.56 billion, just a bit more than the $1.54 billion on Monday, the day after Labor Day.
🔒 More worryingly, the FBI has warned that North Korean hackers are targeting companies involved in the bitcoin ETF market and are using their high-tech hacking methods to conduct cyberattacks.
🌐 North Korean hackers have long been a major concern for the cryptocurrency industry. For example, the Lazarus Group, a notorious hacker group that has been linked to multiple attacks, often uses tools like Tornado Cash to mask the flow of stolen funds.
🔍 Blockchain data company Chainalysis recently reported that the Lazarus Group steals hundreds of millions of dollars in cryptocurrency each year by attacking exchanges and DeFi platforms.
🛡️ In the face of such threats, especially for companies that manage large amounts of cryptocurrency, security measures must be strengthened. At the same time, individual investors must also be vigilant, as hackers are now increasingly targeting individuals for targeted attacks.
