📍SBI Crypto was hacked $21M - the North Korean hacker group Lazarus is suspected to be involved.



📌 SBI Crypto – a mining branch of the Japanese financial group SBI Holdings – was just hacked for about $21M from its hot wallet on September 24.

📌 On-chain data shows that the funds have been transferred through mixing services, a pattern quite similar to previous hacks by the Lazarus group (North Korea). However, SBI has not yet provided an official confirmation.

📌 Although it is not a hack of a large scale compared to cases involving hundreds of millions of USD, this serves as a reminder that even large traditional financial institutions are not immune to crypto security risks.

📌 The incident is expected to reignite the topic of cybersecurity and closer monitoring from regulatory agencies, especially if there is evidence related to North Korea.
