[Report: North Korean Hackers to Cause $2 Billion in Crypto Asset Losses by 2025, Up 51% Year-on-Year] According to a report by Cointelegraph, cybersecurity company CrowdStrike revealed that North Korean hackers and threat actors are expected to cause over $2 billion in crypto asset losses by 2025, representing a 51% year-on-year increase, despite a decrease in the number of attacks. CrowdStrike stated that North Korean hackers are the largest threat group targeting cryptocurrency users, with stolen funds almost certainly being used to fund the regime's military programs. Attackers prioritize high-value targets, mainly focusing on Web3 projects and cryptocurrency exchanges, as stolen funds are easier to anonymize and transfer. In April this year, the Ethereum Foundation identified 100 North Korean hackers, and Drift Protocol was infiltrated by North Korean technical workers, resulting in $280 million in losses. These threat actors establish face-to-face relationships through third-party intermediaries.
