North Korean hackers increasingly targeting wealthy crypto holders

North Korean hackers are increasingly targeting wealthy crypto holders, leading to over $2 billion in thefts this year, with experts warning that the true figure could be even higher. These hackers, such as Lazarus Group, are now focusing on individuals who often lack the security measures of businesses. Western security agencies believe the stolen funds are used to finance North Korea's nuclear weapons and missile development programs, with $6 billion in cryptoassets already stolen by the regime.
