Binance is the world’s largest crypto exchange by daily trading volumes. News of the hacking attack caused the prices of most major cryptocurrencies to fall sharply on Friday.
After the FBI released its statement on Saturday, US President Donald Trump cast doubt on North Korea’s involvement in the hack.
“I’m not concerned. We’re learning about it. We don’t know if it’s North Korea,” Trump told reporters at his residence in Florida.
Trump has made repeated overtures to nuclear-armed North Korea since returning to office, and said he was open to meeting with supreme leader Kim Jong Un this year.
Those gestures have been met with silence from Pyongyang.
Kim Yo Jong, in her statement, said the new allegations “confirmed Washington’s hostile attitude toward the DPRK once again”.
“We have issues to reconsider in diverse aspects as regards the very unpleasant US hostile attitude,” she added.
