Bybit has already paid more than $4 million to bounty hunters who helped trace and freeze some of the stolen funds.

One of the largest publicly-known thefts of cryptocurrency was conducted by North Korean hackers, according to the FBI, who stole $1.5 billion worth of Ethereum from a popular crypto exchange.

The theft earlier this month targeting Bybit, one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges, represents yet another involving a team of hackers identified by the US government by the names TraderTraitor and the Lazarus Group.
