Powell’s speech triggered a wave of gains in BTC. In the past few days, many altcoins have begun to rebound rapidly, and many friends feel that the bull market is coming back.
Today we are not talking about bulls, but about North Korea, which seems to have no connection with BTC.
Previously we mentioned countries that crack down on Bitcoin:
Some of my friends are particularly interested in North Korea.
Da Piaoliang did some research and found that North Korea is indeed a very interesting country.
First, it is the only country in the world that prohibits the use of the Internet. Only people with special permission can access the Internet. According to South Korea's JoongAng Ilbo, there are less than a thousand Internet users in North Korea.
If even the Internet is banned, then cryptocurrency will be banned as well.
Although the North Korean government does not allow ordinary people to have access to cryptocurrencies, it is very dependent on the crypto industry.
A United Nations report stated that North Korea has earned $3 billion from the crypto industry in the past six years, accounting for half of the country’s foreign exchange earnings!
The dependence on foreign exchange income has reached 50%, which makes it a crypto powerhouse, more crypto-dependent than El Salvador!
And these incomes are mainly stolen by hackers!
These North Korean hackers not only launch attacks through various malware, but also forge resumes to enter various encryption companies, making it difficult to guard against them.
It seems that a large proportion of the 1,000 North Koreans who surf the Internet mentioned above are probably hackers.
Many of you may ask, where do North Korea get so many hacker talents?
This is where I would like to introduce the 121st People's Bureau of North Korea. It is said that all members of this bureau are outstanding computer experts in the country. They strictly select the country's top mathematics and computer talents, and all members enjoy the highest level of treatment in North Korea.
The business supervisory agency used by North Korean hackers to steal coins is even more powerful: the famous North Korean Office No. 39, officially known as the Finance and Accounting Department of the Workers' Party of Korea.
It is said that this agency reports directly to the leaders.
The core mission of this agency is to help North Korea earn foreign exchange, break through international economic sanctions, and obtain funds for controversial policies such as developing nuclear weapons. Therefore, it does everything at the business level, and its main business reports include drug trafficking, counterfeiting, human trafficking, arms trade, etc.
However, with the rise of our encryption industry, North Korea's business of stealing encrypted assets alone can develop to 50% of its foreign exchange income, which will instantly kill the traditional black industry and become an emerging track that Room 39 focuses on cultivating.
Many of you may have experienced the theft of your crypto assets, right?
Maybe your stolen coins will be used by North Korea to build nuclear weapons.
