#RadiantCapital #SecurityBreach #Malware #GnosisSafe #DAO #MultiSignature #CyberSecurity #FBI #AssetRecovery #Blockchain
According to BlockBeats, on October 18, Radiant Capital announced via social media that it experienced a highly complex security breach on October 16, resulting in a loss of $50 million. The attackers used advanced malware to exploit multiple developers' hardware wallets.
During the breach, the front end of Safe{Wallet} (also known as Gnosis Safe) displayed legitimate transaction data, while the compromised transactions were signed and executed in the background. This vulnerability occurred during a routine multi-signature adjustment process, which is regularly conducted to adapt to market conditions and utilization rates. DAO contributors strictly adhered to numerous industry-standard operating procedures throughout the process. Each transaction was simulated on Tenderly to ensure accuracy and was independently reviewed by multiple developers at each signing stage. During these reviews, no anomalies were detected in the front-end checks of Tenderly and Safe. External security teams have confirmed that this compromise was undetectable during the manual review of the Gnosis Safe UI and the routine transaction simulations on Tenderly.
Radiant Capital stated that it has been working closely with Seal911 and Hypernative and has implemented stronger multi-signature controls. The FBI and zeroShadow are fully aware of the breach and are actively working to freeze all stolen assets. The DAO is deeply affected by this attack and will continue to collaborate with relevant agencies to identify the attackers and recover the stolen funds as soon as possible.#RadiantCapital #SecurityBreach #Malware #GnosisSafe #DAO #MultiSignature #CyberSecurity #FBI #AssetRecovery #Blockchain

According to Odaily, monitoring by Scam Sniffer has revealed that funds stolen from DEXX are currently being transferred to Tornado Cash. As of now, approximately 1,000 ETH have been deposited into the platform.
The movement of these stolen assets into Tornado Cash, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency mixer, raises concerns about the potential for obscuring the trail of illicit funds. This development highlights ongoing challenges in tracking and recovering stolen cryptocurrency assets, as mixers like Tornado Cash are often used to anonymize transactions, making it difficult for authorities to trace the origins and destinations of the funds.
The incident underscores the importance of robust security measures and monitoring systems in the cryptocurrency space to prevent and respond to thefts effectively. As the situation unfolds, stakeholders in the crypto community are urged to remain vigilant and enhance their security protocols to safeguard against similar incidents in the future.#StolenFunds #DEXX #TornadoCash #Cryptocurrency #ScamAlert #CyberSecurity #EthicsInCrypto #PrivacyMixer #CryptoTheft #AssetRecovery #SecurityProtocols #Anonymity #Vigilance

🚀 Nigerian Authorities Dismantle Major Cryptocurrency Crime Syndicate
#NigerianAuthorities #CryptocurrencyCrime #EFCC #CrimeSyndicate #MoneyLaundering #CyberCrime #AssetRecovery #Fraud #InternationalCrime #Regulation
According to PANews, the Nigerian Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has dismantled a significant cryptocurrency crime syndicate, arresting hundreds of potential criminals, with 53 individuals formally charged. The authorities have recovered approximately $200,000 in assets, while identifying nearly $3 million in various other deposits. Due to the global spread of these criminal activities, the total amount involved and the locations of money laundering remain uncertain.
Reports indicate that the fraudsters engaged in multiple operations, all categorized under cryptocurrency crimes. In December of last year, police apprehended these suspects along with 739 other members, all of whom pleaded not guilty to the charges. The substantial resources seized suggest that the stolen amount could reach billions. However, tracking all stolen assets poses a significant challenge due to the international scope of the crimes.
The EFCC describes these cryptocurrency criminals as a diverse and transnational syndicate, comprising at least 792 members from five or more countries, excluding Nigeria. There may be dozens or even hundreds of unknown accomplices whose funds have yet to be traced.#NigerianAuthorities #CryptocurrencyCrime #EFCC #CrimeSyndicate #MoneyLaundering #CyberCrime #AssetRecovery #Fraud #InternationalCrime #Regulation

🚀 Ether Price Rises Amid Bybit Hack Developments
#Ether #ETH #Bybit #Cryptocurrency #Hacking #Lazarus #Bitcoin #USDT #ColdWallet #CryptoSecurity #AssetRecovery
According to CoinDesk, the price of ether (ETH), the world's second-largest cryptocurrency, has increased by over 2.3% in the past 24 hours. In contrast, the broader CoinDesk 20 Index saw a modest rise of 0.76%, while Bitcoin experienced a slight decline of approximately 0.3%. This surge in ether's value coincides with reports concerning Bybit, a cryptocurrency exchange recently targeted by a North Korean hacking group known as Lazarus. The hackers reportedly stole $1.5 billion worth of ether and staked ether. In response, Bybit has moved 100 million USDT into new addresses, with half of that amount used to purchase 36,900 ETH over-the-counter.
The funds, estimated to be worth around $101 million, were subsequently transferred to addresses identified as belonging to the cryptocurrency exchange, as reported by crypto journalist Colin Wu, citing data from Arkham Intelligence. Bybit's CEO, Ben Zhou, addressed the situation in a public "ask me anything" session, asserting that the company's assets exceed $1.5 billion. He further revealed that Bybit maintains a cold wallet containing nearly $3 billion in USDT, ensuring the company's financial stability.
The hacker responsible for the breach now holds an estimated 489,000 ETH, valued at approximately $1.34 billion, which represents about 0.4% of ether's total supply. This makes the hacker the 14th-largest holder of the cryptocurrency. The addresses linked to the hacker are under close surveillance and have been blacklisted by major cryptocurrency exchanges. StealthEX CEO Maria Carola explained that the stolen funds have been marked, making it extremely challenging for the hacker to utilize them. Any attempt to transfer these funds to a major exchange would likely result in an immediate block.
Given the difficulty the hacker faces in using the stolen ether, some analysts suggest that the 0.4% of the ETH supply held by the hacker is effectively out of circulation. This situation highlights the ongoing challenges and complexities within the cryptocurrency space, particularly concerning security and asset recovery.#Ether #ETH #Bybit #Cryptocurrency #Hacking #Lazarus #Bitcoin #USDT #ColdWallet #CryptoSecurity #AssetRecovery

🚀 U.S. Department of Justice to Review Digital Asset Compensation Practices
#DepartmentofJustice #DigitalAssets #InvestorCompensation #Fraud #Theft #Bankruptcy #MarketValue #Memorandum #AssetRecovery #Reassessment
According to Odaily, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced plans to reassess its approach to compensating investors in cases involving fraud and theft of digital assets. The DOJ memorandum highlights concerns over the practice of reimbursing investors at values lower than the current market price when digital assets are seized.
The memorandum references several high-profile bankruptcy cases from 2022, noting that while not all involved criminal charges, many resulted in investor losses due to fraud and theft of digital assets. Additionally, the DOJ pointed out that the value of these digital assets has significantly increased in the years following these incidents.
Under current U.S. bankruptcy regulations, seized assets are returned to victims based on their value in U.S. dollars at the time the fraud occurred. Although this may seem unfair, experts argue that there are significant reasons behind this rule, and changing it could prove to be very challenging.#DepartmentofJustice #DigitalAssets #InvestorCompensation #Fraud #Theft #Bankruptcy #MarketValue #Memorandum #AssetRecovery #Reassessment

According to PANews, a user successfully withdrew $85,740 USDC using Rabby Wallet's features, after the funds had been frozen since 2023 due to the Multichain incident. Rabby enables users to track and retrieve assets left in DeFi protocols, even if the original interface is no longer functional.
In May 2025, the Singapore High Court approved the liquidation application of the Multichain Foundation and appointed KPMG as joint liquidators. As the liquidation process progresses, some previously frozen or locked funds are gradually becoming available for withdrawal, particularly those not transferred by hackers or released after being seized by law enforcement.
Additionally, a U.S. court has temporarily extended the freeze on wallets containing approximately $63 million in stolen USDC to assist Singaporean liquidators in identifying and recovering assets. Affected Multichain users can check their wallet balances and attempt to withdraw funds through Rabby.#RabbyWallet #USDC #DeFi #Multichain #Liquidation #FrozenFunds #SingaporeHighCourt #KPMG #AssetRecovery #WalletFreeze #Blockchain
