About this source

The FBI periodically publishes Public Service Announcements naming specific cryptocurrency addresses attributed to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Lazarus Group, also tracked as APT38 / TraderTraitor. The August/September 2023 Stake.com PSA consolidated 33 addresses (22 BTC plus altcoins) across the Alphapo / CoinsPaid / Atomic Wallet / Stake.com heists; subsequent PSAs (Bybit 2025-02-26 and others) add more rows as new heists are attributed. Because fbi.gov sits behind a Cloudflare bot challenge that returns 403 to all non-browser clients, we route through OpenSanctions's us_fbi_lazarus_crypto dataset, which mirrors the FBI list verbatim with structured currency tagging.

How we got the data

Daily fetch of data.opensanctions.org's us_fbi_lazarus_crypto/entities.ftm.json, filtered to currency=Bitcoin CryptoWallet entities. Other-chain rows (ETH / BSC / Polygon) in the same dataset are not ingested today since our address corpus is Bitcoin-only.

Why this confidence

Nation-state attribution by a U.S. federal law-enforcement agency. Same compliance grade as OFAC. Reproducible from the OpenSanctions dataset, which itself cites the originating FBI PSA URLs for every row.

License & attribution

OpenSanctions data is published under Creative Commons Attribution. We retain a per-row source_ref pointing back to the OpenSanctions dataset, which preserves the underlying FBI PSA citation.
