North Korea denies role in Binance heist as customers withdraw billions
North Korea has firmly denied allegations from the FBI claiming it stole $6.3 billion from Binance, labeling the accusations as "absurd rhetoric." Kim Yo Jong, sister of leader Kim Jong Un, stated that the U.S. is misrepresenting the situation and warned of potential reconsiderations in response to ongoing hostility. The FBI had linked a North Korean hacking group, TraderTraitor, to the incident, asserting that they were converting stolen assets into Ethereum for laundering.
Meanwhile, Binance customers have withdrawn around $4.64 billion following the lifting of a temporary suspension on withdrawals. The company reported processing significant withdrawals and deposits, indicating a net outflow of about $3.64 billion. Despite the turmoil, Binance reassured users that market conditions remain stable and that they have recovered 90% of the stolen assets using their own funds.

‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping’ to Screen in 3D Through Lionsgate, Meta Partnership
Lionsgate is teaming up with Meta to release “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping” in 3D, marking a unique collaboration where a tech giant partners with a Hollywood studio for a feature film conversion. This is the first time Meta has ventured into converting a film for theatrical release, and they’ve worked closely with the film’s director, Francis Lawrence, and the visual effects studio DNEG, known for their expertise in 3D.
The film will hit theaters on November 20 and will also be available in 3D on Meta VR Glasses when they launch in the spring. These glasses promise an impressive viewing experience with features like a 5K Infinite Display and Dolby Atmos sound. Lawrence expressed his excitement about how the 3D adaptation enhances the film’s immersive quality, allowing audiences to connect more deeply with the story.
“Sunrise on the Reaping” follows 16-year-old Haymitch Abernathy as he navigates the challenges of the 50th Annual Hunger Games, known as the Second Quarter Quell. The story is set 24 years before the original series and showcases Haymitch’s alliance with fellow tribute Maysilee Donner as they confront the Capitol’s oppressive control under President Snow.
The film boasts a strong cast, including Joseph Zada, Mckenna Grace, and Ralph Fiennes, and is based on Suzanne Collins' best-selling books. With the franchise’s history of success, having grossed over $3.3 billion worldwide, Lionsgate is eager to explore new ways for audiences to engage with this beloved story through innovative technology.
