North Korean hackers stole a record $2 billion in crypto in 2025

North Korean hackers have stolen $2 billion in cryptocurrency this year, significantly exceeding last year's figure.

According to a report by blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis, a significant portion of this amount comes from the largest digital heist in cryptocurrency history, when North Korean hackers stole $1.5 billion from the Bybit crypto exchange in February .

Thanks to this theft, the total volume of North Korea's cryptocurrency trophies, according to analysts, increased to at least $6.75 billion over the entire observation period, writes Bloomberg.

The study also showed that the volume of crypto assets stolen by it increased by almost 50% compared to last year, accounting for the lion's share of all stolen industry funds, the total volume of which from January to early December 2025 reached $3.4 billion.

For comparison, the amount of cryptocurrency stolen by North Korean hackers increases every year : in 2023 — $660.50 million, in 2024 — $1.34 billion, in 2025 — $2 billion.

It is no wonder that the Chainalysis report notes that “North Korea continues to pose the greatest state threat to cryptocurrency security.”

Вивчення втрати 4.45 BTC потребує уважного аналізу того, як саме було втрачено кошти. Якщо ви підозрюєте шахрайство, рекомендується повідомити про це відповідні органи, зокрема місцеву поліцію або підрозділ з протидії шахрайству. Консультація з досвідченим фінансовим радником або юристом допоможе оцінити наявність можливих варіантів повернення коштів, таких як страхове відшкодування або судовий позов. Водночас зараз ідеальний момент, щоб переглянути свої фінансові звички та внести зміни, які можуть знизити ймовірність майбутніх втрат.
