So Bitrefill just came out saying the Lazarus group hit them and compromised like 18,500 purchase records. For those not familiar, Lazarus is the North Korea-linked hacker crew that's been behind some pretty major attacks in crypto over the years. This is actually pretty serious stuff.



What's wild is how these Lazarus attacks keep happening despite all the security measures companies claim to have. They're known for targeting crypto businesses specifically, so if you've used services like Bitrefill, might be worth checking if your data was in that batch.

I saw this reported by CoinDesk, which is one of the bigger crypto media outlets out there. They've got pretty strict editorial standards and have won journalism awards for their coverage. The whole Lazarus threat is becoming more of a regular thing in the industry, which honestly should be a wake-up call for how we're securing these platforms.

Anyone else getting tired of hearing about Lazarus breaches? Feel like there's a new one every few months at this point.
