Lazarus hackers have become excellent ETH traders

North Korean hacker group Lazarus Group is up over $40M on the proceeds from last year’s Radiant Capital hack, and is trading ETH like a pro.

The solution to crypto’s Lazarus problem could be simpler than expected

In just over 18 months, North Korean hackers like Lazarus have used the same “hijacked multisig” technique to steal over $1.75B in crypto.

Crypto sleuth ZachXBT revealed North Korean hackers likely stole $5.2M in crypto by infecting the victim with malware.

While some would like to see Lazarus Group’s ill-gotten gains go down the drain, others see the activity on HyperLiquid as a worrying sign.

The Delta Prime incident comes a month after ZachXBT alerted teams across the DeFi sector to their possible infiltration by Lazarus Group.
