Bitget CEO Links $352M Hack to North Korea via IP Clues

Attributing a nine-figure exchange breach to a state-linked group on the strength of IP and VPN fingerprints is a familiar pattern in this sector, where such evidence is suggestive but rarely conclusive. The significance lies less in the attribution itself than in what it signals about the scale and persistence of DPRK-linked operations against crypto venues, and the pressure it puts on exchanges to harden infrastructure and share threat intelligence. Whether the IP evidence is corroborated by further forensics, and how the stolen funds are traced and moved, is the open question.
