联合国揭露朝鲜涉嫌 1.475 亿美元的加密货币洗钱活动
​
According to confidential findings by UN sanctions monitors, North Korea utilised the virtual currency platform Tornado Cash to launder $147.5 million in March, following its theft from a cryptocurrency exchange last year. The monitors revealed to a UN Security Council sanctions committee that they had been investigating 97 suspected cyberattacks by North Korea on cryptocurrency companies between 2017 and 2024, totalling approximately $3.6 billion.
根据联合国制裁监察员的机密调查结果，朝鲜继去年从加密货币交易所被盗后，今年3月利用虚拟货币平台 Tornado Cash 洗钱1.475亿美元。监察员向联合国安理会制裁委员会透露，他们一直在调查2017年至 2024 年间朝鲜对加密货币公司进行的97起疑似网络攻击，总价值约36亿美元。

As can be seen in these confidential findings, one notable incident involved the theft of $147.5 million from the HTX cryptocurrency exchange late last year, which was then laundered in March. The monitors cited information from crypto analytics firm PeckShield and blockchain research firm Elliptic. In 2024 alone, they investigated 11 cryptocurrency thefts valued at $54.7 million, suggesting possible involvement by North Korean IT workers hired by small crypto-related companies.
从这些机密调查结果中可以看出，一个值得注意的事件涉及去年底从 HTX 加密货币交易所盗窃1.475亿美元，并于3月份进行了洗钱。监控者引用了加密货币分析公司 PeckShield 和区块链研究公司 Elliptic 的信息。仅在 2024 年，他们就调查了11起加密货币盗窃案，价值5470万美元，表明小型加密相关公司雇用的朝鲜IT工人可能参与其中。

North Korea, officially known as the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), has faced UN sanctions since 2006, aimed at curbing funding for its ballistic missile and nuclear programs. The US has previously sanctioned Tornado Cash over alleged support for North Korea, with two co-founders charged with facilitating money laundering. Virtual currency ‘mixer’ platforms like Tornado Cash blend cryptocurrencies to obscure their source and ownership.
朝鲜，正式名称为朝鲜民主主义人民共和国（DPRK），自2006年以来一直面临联合国制裁，旨在限制对其弹道导弹和核计划的资助。美国此前曾因涉嫌支持朝鲜而对Tornado Cash实施制裁，两名联合创始人被指控协助洗钱。Tornado Cash等虚拟货币“混合器”平台混合了加密货币，以掩盖其来源和所有权。
