The FBI has confirmed North Korea’s involvement in a $6 billion hack targeting Binance and is asking decentralized-finance participants to block Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana addresses connected with the attack, according to CoinDesk.
FBI targets crypto addresses
The notice lists hundreds of addresses associated with the operation. The FBI’s request is directed at the DeFi community, whose platforms and participants can potentially restrict interactions with identified blockchain addresses.
Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana addresses are included in the request. Blocking an address can prevent or limit it from interacting with certain services, although the notice does not state that every platform will apply the same controls.
Scale of the address network
The number of addresses involved may be considerably larger than those named in the FBI notice. Chainalysis said the attackers have already used “thousands addresses” and expects that figure to continue increasing.
That development complicates efforts to track or restrict the funds. Digital-asset networks record transactions publicly, but funds can move through many addresses, making the broader flow more difficult for platforms and investigators to monitor.
