Who Pulled Off a $41M Online Casino Heist? North Korea, FBI Says.
North Korea’s state-sponsored Lazarus Group has been blamed by the FBI for a hack that stole about $41M in cryptocurrencies from online casino Stake.com. This marks the latest in a series of high-profile crypto heists attributed to the group, who are believed to be funnelling the funds into the country’s nuclear weapons programme. Stake.com co-founder Edward Craven said the attack exploited a service the casino uses to authorise crypto transactions.
