“The misconduct uncovered in relation to Quadriga is limited to Quadriga,” said the Ontario regulator, “and should not be understood as applying to the crypto asset platform industry as a whole.”

No one tell him about the bitwise report. 🙈🙊😂

Guys I love you but seriously. A regulator just stood up for our bullshit. Stop ruining it.

🚨 Heads up all—some dudes have a slick, new way of dropping some nasty malware.

Feels infostealer-y on the surface but...its not.🫠

It'll really, deeply rekt you.

Pls share this w/ your friends, devs, and multisig signers. Everyone needs to be careful + stay skeptical. 🙏Image
If you get hit with this, you need to wipe your computer. Esp. if your wallets haven't been drained.

Shoot SEAL-911 a message @ and we will help you assess -> next steps.

p.s. mention 'Willo' so we can help you faster (holidays, ppl are afk, etc.)t.me/seal_911_bot
How it works / what we've seen:

Usually starts with a "recruiter" from known company e.g. Kraken, MEXC, Gemini, Meta.

Pay ranges + messaging style are attractive—even to those not actively job hunting.

Mostly via Linkedin. Also freelancer sites, job sites, tg, discord, etc.Image

DPRK's trading career is...uh....going.....🙈

tbh if i was the dude managing Hyperliquid's 4 validators (or those fucking ghetto ass binaries on gh) I would be shitting my pants right now.

Hyperliquid dudes dont seem worried at all though so im sure its fine. 🫠 Image
lol @ all you retards who think the risk is USG forcing Hyperliquid to freeze AAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

Yall, DPRK doesn't trade. DPRK tests.🤦‍♀️
my offer from 2 weeks ago still stands @HyperliquidX

i'm still happy to do it async or via a call. i can even give you one of my super nice happy colleagues if you don't like me.

but a massive amt of harm will come to people if you don't harden your ass asap. Image

Gotta correct the record on a headline that's been running wild lately re: the WazirX hack.

Bc it is NOT significant. Or a "breakthrough."

Dude they arrested wasnt involved in the hack. He doesnt know the hackers.

Plz stop regurgitating self-aggrandizing press releases. Image
Here's the actual situation:

At some point prior to July 2024 the actual hackers landed a backdoor onto something that gave them some access to the WazirX multisig signers and/or their signatures.

We don't know what or who was compromised and it doesn't really matter.
Initial toehold was likely gained by tricking someone at WazirX or Liminal into installing malware -> escalated from there.

This access allowed the hackers to intercept/insert invisible, malicious payloads for signing in a way where none of the 3+ signers were able to notice.

With the recent sophisticated hacks fresh on everyone's mind, there's been a lot of talk about ✨fancy stacks and setups.✨

Yes, you should evaluate how—and with what—you sign txns.

But building a custom UI for your LAN Qubes OS AWS KMS everyday is not really the answer 😅
Background on the referenced hacks (feel free to skip):

1. Funds were stolen from each org's multisig.

2. Keys themselves were not compromised.

3. In Radiant and WazirX and maybe DMM, the keys backing the multisig were actually only on hardware wallets + actually controlled by distinct parties.

Radiant - $50m, like 2 days ago
medium.com/@RadiantCapita…

WazirX - $230m in July

liminalcustody.com/blog/update-on…

DMM Bitcoin - $305m in May
The least amt is known about DMM, including whether keys were cold vs hot. Early theories said address poisoning. It def wasn't that. Attached is rampant speculation (likely all wrong)

Also, note, any organization that can implement / enforce EDR, etc. should do so. Full stop. End of conversation.

However, the crypto industry generally considers this a non-starter for all sorts of philosophical + practical reasons.

So, until we get there, here's the deal:

Alright so comments here are a bit looney and I don’t particularly like them bc it distracts and undermines the actual risk.

Spoiler: @coinbase getting hacked is not the risk.

But there is still risk. Even when using Coinbase.
This gunna be long. Sorry. But it needs to be said. Clearly.

First: the reason I say Coinbase is not the risk is because they take INSANE measures to mitigate the risk of being hacked.

They always have.

They are really fucking serious abt security across the board.
Coinbase is NOT different bc they’ve *eliminated* the risk though.

Bc they haven’t. Bc they can’t. NO ONE CAN.

This shit is wild. The incentives are too much. The hackers have too many resources.

They will literally burn 0 days to get at Coinbase. They *have* burned 0 days.
