Kim Yo Jong Cites FBI's $6B Binance Hack Claim, Says North Korea Won't Talk to US

North Korea is slamming the door on talks with Washington — for now. According to Cointelegraph, Pyongyang says it sees no need to sit down with the US at this point, a stance delivered alongside a fresh jab at American policy.

The message came with a crypto twist. Kim Yo Jong pointed to the FBI's accusation tied to a $6 billion Binance hack, framing it as proof of what she called Washington's 'hostile policy' toward the North.

That accusation sits at the center of the latest flare-up. Kim's comments turn the FBI's claim into a political cudgel, arguing the US isn't interested in dialogue so much as pressure.

It's a familiar posture from Pyongyang: slam the door, then leave it cracked. The wording — no need for talks 'for now' — keeps the option open without committing to anything.

For crypto watchers, the mention lands hard. A $6 billion Binance hack figure is one of the largest figures attached to any exchange-related accusation, and North Korea's name has long been tied to major crypto thefts in the industry.

What happens next is a waiting game. Washington hasn't responded in the source report, and Pyongyang's 'for now' leaves the door technically ajar — but nobody's walking through it yet.
