Shocking!!!
"1.4 Billion Dollars Stolen! Hackers Launder Money Rampantly, Behind It Is North Korea's Cybercrime Group!"
The recovery progress of the largest theft in cryptocurrency history is rapid. The trading platform has fully covered the $1.5 billion Ethereum gap and confirmed that it will release new proof of reserves, ensuring that customer assets have been restored to a 1:1 ratio.
However, the hackers behind the theft—the Lazarus Group from North Korea—have begun laundering the stolen funds through decentralized exchanges (DEX) and anonymous platforms. Investigations show that over $140 million of the stolen Ethereum has been dispersed across multiple wallets and transferred via the eXch exchange. Despite the platform's request for intervention, eXch has refused to cooperate.
Since 2017, the Lazarus Group has stolen over $6 billion in cryptocurrency assets, and the funds are suspected to be used to support North Korea's missile program. The organization's money laundering methods are extremely complex, constantly breaking through regulatory tracking, making investigations significantly more difficult.
