If Crypto developers know that they are the target of hackers especially the ones from North Korea as this post has claimed, is it not possible for them to prevent any such attacks by maybe recruiting one of such hackers to make their system impenetrable by making sure their system is not vulnerable to all the methods that the North Korean hackers will use. I believe that there are hackers whose job is usually to help companies prevent their severs from being hacked. Are Crypto developers and other targets overlooking the threats on their back and waiting for it to happen first before they take action?

We're talking about crypto not banks. These projects mostly are open source so anyone can contribute on GitHub as their developer. I guess the hackers want to be able to gain access to the developer's device when it matters most. Maybe create code flaws to enable them drain project treasuries down the line. You should know that one can't be too careful in these things. Just a slip is enough.

I think anyone involved in project codebase should absolutely be security conscious. Things like virtual machines should be used to isolate sensitive data in their work devices.
