🟠 The new FBI director holds his cash in BTC — he invested $115,000 in a Bitcoin ETF and also owns shares in the mining company Core Scientific.

Yesterday, the cryptocurrency exchange ByBit was hacked 🕵️‍♂️ Current information about the hack:

🔴 Withdrawals have been suspended.

🔴 The Bybit exchange was hacked by the North Korean group Lazarus, resulting in the theft of around 400,000 ETH.

🔴 Arthur Hayes reached out to Vitalik Buterin, asking him to consider the possibility of rolling back the Ethereum network.

🔴 Since the hack, users have withdrawn about $2 billion, however, Binance and other exchanges transferred over 90,000 ETH to Bybit's cold wallet to stabilize the situation.

🔴 The hackers have started laundering the stolen funds through crypto mixers.

🔴 Arkham has launched a bounty program to find traces or information about the hacker, which could assist in the investigation of the incident.

🔴 The company Chainflip is working on creating a service to reject the reception of the stolen ETH from Bybit through broker-api.

🔴 North Korea is now the 14th largest holder of Ethereum in the world, surpassing even Vitalik and the Ethereum Foundation.

🔴 The Bybit hack became the largest in history in terms of dollar value at the time of the incident.

😮 The Bybit hack has been uncovered, and according to emerging reports, Pak Jin Hyok may be responsible for it.

If this is true, considering his alleged track record, he can be classified as one of the most dangerous hackers ever encountered. This incident is being called one of the biggest heists in cryptocurrency market history.

Previously, Pak Jin Hyok was known as a hacker accused by U.S. authorities of orchestrating the WannaCry ransomware attack. His portfolio also includes high-profile incidents such as the Sony Pictures hack and the theft of funds from Bangladesh's central bank. Additionally, he is known to be a member of Lazarus Group.

In this case, a cold ETH wallet with a multi-signature feature was used for the hack. Cybersecurity expert ZachXBT traced the connection between the attack and Lazarus Group. According to Bybit’s CEO, hackers tricked users by presenting a fake interface and subtly altering transaction details. A detailed forensic analysis, including test transactions, wallet tracking, and timeline reconstruction, confirmed that the techniques used matched the known methods of Lazarus Group.

As a result, the attackers managed to steal $1.46 billion from Bybit—not by breaking the code, but by exploiting human inattentiveness.
