🇰🇵🇷🇺 Chainalysis: $21.9 million worth of cryptocurrency stolen by North Korean hackers from the Harmony protocol was recently transferred to a Russian exchange.

North Korean structures have been using Russian services since 2021 for money laundering. Russia's refusal to cooperate makes the prospect of returning stolen funds particularly difficult.

The total amount of stolen cryptocurrency for all time is estimated at $3.54 billion.

👀 #COIN #CRV Coinbase Accidentally Made $1M in Curve Hack, but Didn't Refund Victims.

The Curve exploit briefly took prices out of action on the DeFi platform in July, and the trading bot paid 570 ETH to ensure it could take advantage of this unique arbitrage opportunity. The Ethereum validator that received this payment belonged to Coinbase, making it an unwitting beneficiary of the incident.
