FBI publicly attributes October Binance theft to North Korean TraderTraitor actors in 31 October cyber alert

On 31 October 2026 the US FBI published an advisory attributing the theft of more than USD 6 billion from Binance on or about 29 October to North Korea-linked TraderTraitor actors, and described observed crypto conversion and recommended blocking suspect transactions. This event is the official FBI attribution announcement, not another theft on October 31, a criminal conviction or independent public reproduction of every forensic claim.
