China Accuses U.S. of ¥20 Trillion Bitcoin Theft in Rubian Hack

The core of the statement, which is that a Chinese entity accused the U.S. of a major Bitcoin theft, is strongly supported by two high-authority, high-relevance sources (Bloomberg and Decrypt). Both sources report that a Chinese cybersecurity agency made this specific accusation against the U.S. government.However, there is a significant discrepancy in the value of the stolen assets. Both sources state the amount was approximately $13 billion USD. The statement claims the value was ¥20 trillion CNY. A simple conversion shows that $13 billion USD is approximately ¥94 billion CNY, a figure vastly smaller than ¥20 trillion. Furthermore, ¥20 trillion (roughly $2.7 trillion USD) is an implausibly high figure, exceeding the entire market capitalization of Bitcoin even at its historical peak.The name 'Rubian Hack' in the statement is likely a minor transliteration difference from the 'LuBian' mining pool hack mentioned in the Bloomberg article.Therefore, while the central event of the accusation is factually correct and well-documented, the monetary value in the statement is grossly inaccurate. The assessment is 'likely_true' because the fundamental claim of the accusation occurred, which is the most significant part of the statement, despite the factual error in the specific amount.
