Binance said it detected and prevented 57 additional North Korea-linked cyberthreats in 2025, beyond previously disclosed incidents. The disclosure underscores the growing role of exchange-level security controls as state-backed hacking groups, including Lazarus, target crypto platforms with increasing frequency. It matters because North Korea-linked attacks have drained billions of dollars from the industry in recent years, and Binance is among the largest venues by trading volume and user base. What to watch next is whether Binance publishes a fuller breakdown of the 57 threats and whether peer exchanges disclose comparable figures, which would clarify how much of the risk is industry-wide versus venue-specific.
