Fed Whispers, ECB Echoes, and Bitcoin’s Low-Key Rebellion The past forty-eight hours have been an exercise in central-bank monotony—punctuated only by bond traders shrugging and crypto speculators holding their breath. If you tuned out after the Fed’s ritualistic pause on Thursday, here’s everything you actually need to know. The Fed held the federal-funds rate at 5.25–5.50%, citing “moderate further progress” on 3.1% core PCE. Translation: inflation is stubborn, but they’d rather stall than ...

Lazarus Group Washes Out $35 Million from DMM Bitcoin Hack
The Lazarus Group, a notorious North Korean hacking collective, has allegedly laundered over $35 million in stolen Bitcoin from the DMM Bitcoin hack. This is just the latest in a long string of cyber attacks and financial heists carried out by the group.
A History of Hacking
The Lazarus Group has been active for years, with estimates suggesting they have stolen over $3 billion in cryptocurrency and other assets since 2017. Their targets have included defense contractors, financial institutions, and other organizations.
The DMM Bitcoin Hack
In May, the Japanese cryptocurrency exchange DMM Bitcoin was hacked, resulting in the theft of 305 million US dollars in Bitcoin. The hackers exploited a critical security vulnerability, allowing them to access the company's servers and steal the cryptocurrency.
Laundering the Stolen Bitcoin
The stolen Bitcoin was allegedly laundered through privacy mixers and then bridged to Ethereum and Avalanche using the THORChain protocol. This allowed the hackers to conceal the origins of the stolen cryptocurrency and make it difficult to trace.
A Pattern of Behavior
The Lazarus Group's tactics and techniques are similar to those used in other hacks and financial crimes. According to Onchain Detective ZachXBT, "It is suspected that the Lazarus Group is behind the hack, as there are similarities in the money laundering techniques and off-chain indicators."
A Warning to Crypto Investors
The DMM Bitcoin hack is just the latest in a series of high-profile attacks on cryptocurrency exchanges. In the past 12 months, losses have increased tenfold, making it more important than ever for investors to take steps to protect their assets. This includes using reputable exchanges, storing coins in cold storage, and using strong passwords and two-factor authentication.
