Actors claiming to be "white hats" exploited a system vulnerability to trick Liquid into accepting L-BTC that was never backed by real bitcoin. The hackers were then able to exchange that unbacked L-BTC for actual BTC held in the network’s reserve to the tune of 4000 BTC worth ~$320M.
Blockstream (Liquid’s developer) patched the bug and received 85% of what was taken. But $47 million remained with the hackers, and it is currently unclear if the funds have been returned. https://www.chainalysis.com/blog/320m-exploit-liquid-network/ #Crypto #CryptoHack #ChainAlysis #BlockStream #LiquidNetwork #BlockChain #LBTC #BTC #Hackers #CryptoCurrencies #WhiteHat

Bad Actor "“Prometheus”, one of the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives engineered malware that “jackpotted” US ATMs, to the tune of ~$40M, then leveraged cryptocurrencies to launder the ill gotten currency.
Crypto analysis boffins detail how transnational criminal group Tren de Aragua executed the scheme.
“Jackpotting” is a cyberattack where bad guys install malware on automated teller machines (ATMs) and force them to dispense cash without debiting any account.
The bad guys employed counterparties with money laundering operations based in Mexico, Colombia, and Venezuela, and the network relied heavily on stablecoins to move the $$ around. https://www.chainalysis.com/blog/ofac-sanctions-tren-de-aragua-crypto-laundering-september-2026/ #Crypto #Cryptocurrencies #Stablecoins #MoneyLaundering #JackPotting #ATMs #TrendeAragua #Malware #Cryptocrime #10MostWanted #FBI #OFAC #Sanctions #CryptoExchange #bitcoin
