The North Korean hacker group stole the funds over the last six years, which was likely used to fund the country's projects, the report said.
In a new report, Estonia’s preeminent crypto payment and personal wallet provider, CoinsPaid, has revealed the intricate workings of a hacking incident that led to a colossal loss of $37 million. This audacious breach was reportedly the culmination of a six-month saga marked by calculated maneuvers and sophisticated tactics, orchestrated by none other than the notorious Lazarus Group.
Cryptocurrency processing platform CoinsPaid has resumed operations after suffering a significant hack last week. The event, which occurred on July 22, forced the platform to put a hold on its operations for four days.
CoinsPaid has said it is back to processing transactions on the platform after the security incident. However, the company notes that fortified systems minimized the hack's impact. The post CoinsPaid Says Lazarus Group Was Behind Platform’s $37.3 Million Hack appeared first on BeInCrypto.
Hackers that targeted crypto wallet Atomic Wallet in a $35 million heist earlier this month have used THORChain and Swft bridge to conceal their ill-gotten gain, according to blockchain sleuth MistTrack.
CEO Konstantin Gladych told CoinDesk Atomic is cooperating with law enforcement after a $100 million exploit of the non-custodial wallet.
The attackers are believed to be the infamous North Korean hacker group Lazarus, as per blockchain security firm Elliptic.
