North Korea’s Crypto Hacks Are Funding NUKES? | Chainalysis

North Korean hackers are stealing crypto to help fund a nuclear weapons program — and AI is making their operations even more sophisticated. Diederik van Wersch, ASEAN Regional Director at Chainalysis, joins Cointelegraph to explain how North Korea's Lazarus Group exploits human trust, moves stolen funds across blockchains, and uses artificial intelligence to make crypto crime harder to trace. But there's another side to the story. Despite weak crypto prices and an elusive altcoin season, institutional adoption is reaching unprecedented levels. According to Chainalysis, institutional platform activity in Singapore surged 94%, while crypto usage across emerging markets continues to expand. #Bitcoin #crypto #news Follow COINTELEGRAPH: Website: https://cointelegraph.com/ Telegram: https://t.me/cointelegraph Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cointelegraph Twitter: https://twitter.com/cointelegraph Mobile app: https://linktr.ee/cointelegraph_mobile Cointelegraph covers everything Bitcoin, bringing you the latest news, prices, breakthroughs, and analysis, with emphasis on expert opinion and commentary from the digital currency community.
