🚀 Infini Takes Legal Action Following $50 Million Fund Loss

According to Odaily, Infini has issued a statement regarding the recent loss of $50 million, announcing that it has filed a lawsuit with the Hong Kong High Court and served court documents to the relevant blockchain addresses. The company has requested several legal measures: 1) an asset freeze order to prevent the involved parties from transferring or disposing of the funds; 2) a demand for the wallet controllers to disclose their identities to further trace the asset flow; 3) permission for service outside the jurisdiction to support legal actions across different jurisdictions.
Infini explained that the fund outflow was due to an unauthorized transfer that bypassed multi-signature approval, caused by a vulnerability in permission management. In response, the company has restructured its contract permission framework, introduced third-party audits, and implemented an on-chain monitoring system to strengthen governance mechanisms and ensure the security of user assets. The platform emphasized that user funds remain unaffected, with all deposit, withdrawal, and payment card services operating normally.#Infini #LegalAction #Lawsuit #HongKongHighCourt #AssetFreeze #Blockchain #UnauthorizedTransfer #Security #UserFunds #GovernanceMechanisms
🚀 South Korean Police Officers Accused of Bribery in Cryptocurrency Money Laundering Case

According to BlockBeats, two South Korean police officers have been accused of accepting bribes from an illegal cryptocurrency exchange, with the total amount of money laundering involved reaching $1.86 billion (approximately 2.496 trillion Korean won). Prosecutors allege that the officers provided criminal groups with investigative intelligence, assisted in unfreezing accounts, introduced lawyers, and connected them with other law enforcement personnel in exchange for financial compensation. South Korean authorities have frozen related assets worth about $1.1 million (1.5 billion Korean won).
The money laundering operation was orchestrated by a main perpetrator in collaboration with a CEO known as "A." Between January and October 2024, they recruited members to establish cash-to-cryptocurrency exchange points disguised as "gift voucher shops" in bustling areas like Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam District, Seoul. These locations were used to convert proceeds from voice phishing scams into the stablecoin USDT. To avoid suspicion, the shops even displayed warnings against voice phishing scams.#SouthKorea #PoliceOfficers #Bribery #Cryptocurrency #MoneyLaundering #IllegalExchange #VoicePhishing #USDT #CryptoCrime #Gangnam #YeoksamDong #Seoul #Prosecutors #AssetFreeze
🚀 Flow Foundation Addresses Security Breach and Asset Transfer

According to Odaily, the Flow Foundation has released an official update regarding a security breach that occurred on December 27, 2025. Attackers exploited a vulnerability in the Flow execution layer, transferring approximately $3.9 million worth of assets off-chain before validators coordinated a shutdown. The foundation assured that no existing user balances were affected, and all user deposits remain intact. The stolen funds were primarily moved through a cross-chain bridge, and the attacker's address has been identified and flagged. Efforts to trace the laundering paths are ongoing, and requests to freeze the assets have been submitted to Circle, Tether, and major exchanges.
The foundation stated that the network has been isolated, and a fix for the vulnerability has been released, currently undergoing verification and deployment. To remove unauthorized transactions, the network will roll back to a checkpoint before the attack, requiring legitimate transactions submitted during the period to be resubmitted after the restart. Based on feedback from validators and ecosystem partners, the foundation has decided to extend the coordination time to ensure network consensus and long-term security. The network will not be hastily restarted until thorough consultations are completed. User funds remain secure throughout the process, and updates will continue to be released according to the established schedule.#FlowFoundation #SecurityBreach #AssetTransfer #CrossChainBridge #Validators #NetworkSecurity #Blockchain #DecentralizedFinance #FundsRecovery #Cryptocurrency #AssetFreeze #VulnerabilityFix #BlockchainUpdate #Odaily #CryptoNews #FLOW
🚀 South Korea Considers Payment Suspension System for Virtual Asset Price Manipulation Cases
#SouthKorea #paymentSuspension #virtualAssets #priceManipulation #FinancialServicesCommission #assetFreeze #illicitGains #virtualAssetLegislation #capitalMarkets #assetPreservation #earlyRegulation #paymentSuspensionSystem #cryptocurrency
According to Odaily, South Korean financial authorities are exploring the introduction of a 'payment suspension' system in cases of virtual asset price manipulation. This measure aims to prevent suspects from transferring or concealing illicit gains during the investigation phase. The South Korean Financial Services Commission discussed this approach in a routine meeting last November, suggesting that accounts suspected of manipulating virtual asset prices could be frozen in advance, similar to measures taken in capital markets against stock price manipulation. This would restrict withdrawals, transfers, and other fund outflows.
The report highlights that under the current system, the confiscation or recovery of illegal gains from virtual assets typically requires a court warrant following a prosecutorial investigation, posing a risk of asset transfer during this period. The Financial Services Commission believes that a payment suspension mechanism, akin to those in capital market laws, could be introduced in the proposed 'second phase of virtual asset legislation' to more effectively prevent premature disposal of unrealized gains. A representative from the financial authorities noted that since virtual assets can be more easily concealed once transferred to personal wallets, such a system could help enhance early-stage regulation and asset preservation.#SouthKorea #paymentSuspension #virtualAssets #priceManipulation #FinancialServicesCommission #assetFreeze #illicitGains #virtualAssetLegislation #capitalMarkets #assetPreservation #earlyRegulation #paymentSuspensionSystem #cryptocurrency

The U.S. Department of Justice has seized over $580 million linked to extensive cryptocurrency investment scams operating in Southeast Asia. According to NS3.AI, these scams function like industrial call centers, employing scripted operations and coerced labor to systematically defraud victims. The fraudulent schemes involve building trust through genuine crypto purchases, then transferring funds to fake platforms that display fabricated returns and impose hidden extraction fees.
The enforcement strategy is evolving from pursuing individual scammers to targeting critical infrastructure chokepoints. This shift is facilitated by blockchain analysis and collaboration with stablecoin issuers, enabling substantial asset freezes. The crackdown represents a significant move in combating organized crypto fraud and protecting investors from sophisticated scams.#USDepartmentofJustice #crypto #scam #SoutheastAsia #fraud #blockchain #stablecoin #assetfreeze #cryptoenforcement #investmentfraud #crypto scams
