[The U.S. Department of Justice Seeks to Forfeit $15.1 Million USDT Linked to North Korean Hackers] The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a request to forfeit over $15.1 million USDT seized from North Korean hackers associated with the APT38 military cyber unit. The FBI recovered these funds after tracking stolen assets from multiple hacking incidents targeting exchanges and payment platforms in 2023. The Department of Justice has submitted two civil forfeiture applications, seeking court approval to retain the assets and return them to the victims. Investigations revealed that these USDT funds are connected to APT38's operations targeting four overseas virtual currency platforms in 2023. Although the Department of Justice did not explicitly name the platforms, the timing and amounts align with theft cases involving Poloniex, CoinsPaid, Alphapo, and others in 2023.
