The FBI referred to the attack as “TraderTraitor,” a malicious campaign linked to North Korean state-sponsored hackers the Lazarus Group.

The FBI has accused North Korean-linked hackers of conducting one of the largest known thefts of cryptocurrency — worth some $1.5 billion — from a Dubai-based firm.

North Korean hackers were behind the theft of $1.5 billion of virtual assets last week from Dubai-based cryptocurrency exchange Bybit, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation said, marking the biggest heist in history.
