🚨 Crypto, espionage, and national security — South Korea draws a hard line 🇰🇷⚖️

South Korea’s Supreme Court has upheld a 4-year prison sentence for a crypto exchange employee involved in a spy operation linked to North Korean hackers 🕵️‍♂️💻.

🔍 According to investigators:

The employee helped hackers recruit a South Korean army captain

Military secrets were to be exchanged for Bitcoin

💰 The employee received $487,000 in BTC

💸 The officer was paid $33,500 in BTC

⚠️ Authorities ruled this as a direct violation of the National Security Act, calling it a threat to state security.

📌 Even more concerning:
Hackers reportedly instructed the employee to provide:
⌚ a “watch-shaped device”
💾 a malicious USB
— both intended to gain remote access to US–South Korea command systems.
The attempt failed, but the intent was clear.

🔒 The army captain was previously sentenced to 10 years in prison under military secrecy laws.

🧠 Market takeaway:
Crypto isn’t just finance anymore — it’s infrastructure.
And when it intersects with geopolitics, regulation stops being theoretical.

⚠️ Trust Wallet moved to strict verification after the breach — but thousands of claims turned out to be false or duplicated 👀

🧩 The team confirmed that a malicious browser extension update (v2.68) affected 2,596 addresses.
📨 Around 5,000 compensation claims were submitted — many of them invalid or fraudulent.
🔍 Verification is now a critical step to ensure refunds go only to real victims.

🚫 Opening a claim form and clicking “submit” is not enough.
A wave of false requests is slowing down the process for users who actually lost funds.
This isn’t just another “wallet got hacked” story — it’s a reminder that responsibility and proof matter.

📌 Market takeaway:
When large platforms launch compensation programs, they attract not only victims but also opportunists.
The market keeps proving one thing: security, verification, and accountability matter more than headlines.

$TWT TRUST WALLET BREACH EXPOSED: $7M HIT — BUT USERS GET FULL PAYBACK

Trust Wallet has officially opened its compensation process after a Christmas-time malware incident drained roughly $7 million from users. And here’s the key headline: 100% reimbursement is confirmed.

The attack came from a malicious Chrome extension update (v2.68), published after a Chrome Web Store API key leak, allowing hackers to bypass internal checks. The injected code harvested seed phrases and funneled them to attacker servers. Assets across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana were affected.

Roughly $4M has already flowed through centralized exchanges, while about $2.8M remains in hacker wallets. Only desktop Chrome extension users who logged in before 18:00 (VN time) on Dec 26 were impacted — mobile users are safe.

Trust Wallet has patched the issue, urging upgrades to v2.89, and CZ confirmed losses will be covered via SAFU.

Trust Wallet on Friday announced it has launched a formal compensation process for victims of a security incident affecting its Chrome browser extension, two days after malicious code was discovered embedded in version 2.68 of the software.

Hacked users can submit claims through an official support form hosted on Trust Wallet's portal. The process asks victims to provide their email address, country of residence, compromised wallet addresses, the attacker's receiving addresses, and relevant transaction hashes. Trust Wallet has pledged to compensate all affected users. 

"We are working around the clock to finalize the compensation process details and each case requires careful verification to ensure accuracy and security," Trust Wallet wrote on X. 

The wallet provider confirmed that approximately $7 million in digital assets were stolen across multiple blockchains, including bitcoin, ether, and solana. According to blockchain security firm PeckShield, more than $4 million of the stolen funds had already been moved through centralized exchanges including ChangeNOW, FixedFloat, and KuCoin, while approximately $2.8 million remained in the attacker's wallets as of Thursday.

Changpeng Zhao, founder of Binance, which acquired Trust Wallet in 2018, confirmed on X that the company will cover all affected losses. "So far, $7m affected by this hack. TrustWallet will cover," Zhao wrote, adding that user funds "are SAFU." #security $ETH #polska $BTC

Kaspersky ostrzega - gamingowa pułapka na krypto: nowy malware „Stealka" kradnie portfele graczy.

Grasz w gry i masz kryptowaluty? Kaspersky twierdzi, że musisz uważać. Cyberprzestępcy znaleźli nową strategię ataku na portfele kryptowalutowe - tym razem pod płaszczykiem tego, czego graczy szukają najczęściej: modów do gier i darmowego softu. Firma Kaspersky ujawniła szczegóły nowego złośliwego oprogramowania o nazwie „Stealka", które celuje w użytkowników Microsoft Windows.

Zakamuflowany pod gry i cracki

Malware, odkryty w listopadzie, rozprzestrzenia się przez legalne platformy takie jak GitHub, SourceForge i Google Sites. Przybiera postać modów do popularnych gier - szczególnie Roblox - oraz cracków do aplikacji w rodzaju Microsoft Visio. Atakujący idą o krok dalej, tworząc całe fałszywe strony internetowe, które według badacza Kaspersky, Artema Ushkova, wyglądają „całkiem profesjonalnie". Prawdopodobnie korzystają przy tym z narzędzi AI. Stealka dysponuje „rozbudowanym arsenałem możliwości", ale najgroźniejsza jest jej specjalizacja: atakuje dane z przeglądarek opartych na silnikach Chromium i Gecko. To oznacza zagrożenie dla ponad 100 różnych przeglądarek, w tym Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Yandex, Edge i Brave.

Głównym celem są dane autouzupełniania - loginy, hasła, adresy i dane kart płatniczych. Ale to nie wszystko. Malware atakuje również ustawienia i bazy danych 115 rozszerzeń przeglądarek, obejmujących portfele kryptowalutowe, menedżery haseł i usługi 2FA.

Trust Wallet Confirms 2,596 Victims — Now the Hard Part Starts

Trust Wallet has now verified 2,596 affected addresses from the extension breach where victims lost $BTC and $ETH as well as $SOL .

Nearly 5,000 claims are in, but many are duplicates or outright fraud, forcing the team into forensic-level identity checks to separate real victims from opportunists.

Accuracy is now the bottleneck, and the trust layer is being rebuilt in public. #security

🚨 Privacy Alert: How Your Phone May Be Sharing Your Crypto Activity

Key Concern:
Reports suggest some domestic-brand smartphones may be monitoring and uploading user data – including app usage lists and crypto activity – to national regulatory networks.

🔍 How This Could Affect Crypto Users:
• Authenticated apps could be logging your trading activity
• Background monitoring may track software usage frequency
• Data could be shared without explicit user consent

🛡️ Protective Measures Suggested:
1. Use international device versions (e.g., global Samsung/Apple)
2. Access internet via secure channels (VPN/Tor)
3. Avoid installing suspicious domestic apps
4. Consider dedicated devices for sensitive activities

⚠️ Important Note:
This information is based on user reports and concerns – not confirmed breaches. Always prioritize security and privacy in your digital habits.
