North Korea launders Binance funds with Elon Musk memecoin, report

A report says North Korea-linked hackers who stole $6.4B from Binance are laundering the funds through memecoins built on TRON, Solana and NEAR, including one themed around Elon Musk. The use of memecoin markets to move stolen crypto highlights laundering risk on those chains and could draw closer scrutiny from exchanges and regulators. Traders holding BNB, TRX, SOL or NEAR should watch for compliance actions or delisting pressure tied to the flows.
