North Korea's Lazarus hackers have successfully laundered $300 million from their $1.5 billion heist on crypto exchange ByBit, the largest crypto hack in history. Despite efforts to track and freeze the stolen assets, at least 20% of the money has disappeared. Experts believe the stolen funds are being used to fund North Korea's nuclear and military programs. The hackers are constantly working to evade detection, using sophisticated tools. ByBit has launched a bounty program to track and freeze the stolen funds, with 20 people receiving $4 million in rewards so far. While some exchanges are cooperating, others have allowed Lazarus to cash out more stolen funds. The U.S. blames North Korea for numerous crypto hacks and has added Lazarus members to its Cyber Most Wanted list, but the chances of arrests are slim as long as they remain in North Korea.
