"North Korea is using and exploiting cryptocurrencies to bypass international regulators and help financially support its regime, a new report has revealed.....North Korean hackers have previously been blamed for a cyber attack on South Korean bitcoin exchange Youbit last year, which resulted in the theft of around $72 million-worth of cryptocurrency.
