The Greek authorities carried out the country’s first cryptocurrency crisis, blocking access to the funds raised compared to record piracy of $ 1.5 billion in February linked to the Lazarus group in North Korea.
The Hellenic authority to combat mastery whitening has retraced a suspicious transaction to a portfolio which was linked to the data on the chain linked to the initial flight. This portfolio, according to the Minister of Greece of the Economy and Finance, Kyriakos Pierrakakis, was linked to a “Greek platform providing exchange services”.
Analysts, according to a blog post, used the Chainalysy reactor to map the fundflow to establish “a final connection between the cryptocurrency in the suspicious user portfolio and the main wallets used in statement hack”, adds the post.
The evidence allowed the agency to make a freezing order, locating the assets before they can disappear. According to Pierrakakis, the operations of the Hellenic anti-flowage authority allowed around 10 million euros ($ 11.7 million) be reappected to the victims. We do not know if one of these yields is linked to the recent crisis.
In the past, pirates have moved funds through mixers such as Wasabi and Tornado Cash, cross -bridges and peer peer offices.
The public dashboard of Bybit Lazarusboundy suggests that around $ 72 million, 5% of the stolen ether, have now been frozen, while a third party remains traceable. According to the dashboard, around $ 870 million stolen from Bybit have now become “dark”.
