Arkham Intelligence published a report examining Lazarus Group’s crypto laundering network and operational tactics between 2017 and 2026.
According to the research, Lazarus-linked actors were tied to more than $6 billion in stolen cryptocurrency across exchange breaches, ransomware campaigns, bridge exploits, and decentralized finance attacks.
Arkham said North Korean-linked actors accounted for more than 70% of crypto exploit losses recorded so far in 2026.
The report described how Lazarus allegedly moves stolen assets through cross-chain bridges, mixers, centralized exchanges, OTC brokers, and fragmented wallet activity to complicate blockchain tracing efforts.
THORChain was identified as a frequently used bridge for converting stolen assets into Bitcoin. Arkham also referenced mixers including Sinbad.io and YoMix, along with Russian exchanges and Chinese OTC brokers involved in cash-out activity.
The research examined the April 2026 Drift Protocol ($DRIFT ) exploit, where attackers allegedly spent months building trust with employees through conferences, deposits exceeding $1 million, and fake partnership activity. Arkham said Lazarus later used pre-authorized Solana transactions to drain about $285 million from the protocol.
The report also covered the February 2026 KelpDAO exploit. According to Arkham, attackers compromised LayerZero RPC nodes and forged cross-chain messages, allowing the withdrawal of 116,500 $rsETH valued at about $292 million.
Arkham concluded that Lazarus continues adapting its laundering methods and attack strategies as blockchain tracing systems become more advanced.

Innovative Rescue Plan: Drift Proposes to Compensate Victims of the $295 Million Hack via "Recovery Tokens"
In a bold move reflecting the evolution of crisis management within the crypto market, Drift Protocol has announced a proposal to compensate victims of the recent hack, which resulted in losses of approximately $295 million, by issuing what are known as Recovery Tokens.
The idea is to grant the affected individuals tokens that represent their rights to compensation, with the value being paid out gradually through future protocol revenues. Notably, the initiative has received strong backing, securing around $147 million in commitments, led by Tether and other strategic partners.
Why is this important?
This step could set a new model for disaster management in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space, where instead of collapse or bankruptcy, flexible solutions are being innovated to gradually restore user trust.
⚖️ The real challenge:
The success of this plan hinges on Drift's ability to generate sustainable revenues, as well as its commitment to transparency in distributing compensations, which will determine the extent to which community trust can be restored.
In summary:
What Drift is doing is not just an attempt at compensation, but a true test of crypto projects' ability to withstand and innovate under pressure.

🚨 $DRIFT bounce looks weak — sellers stepping back in? 👀📉
Drift Protocol (DRIFT) has already seen heavy short interest (~56%), and now price is struggling to hold gains after a rebound.
💡 This doesn’t look like accumulation… it looks like absorption before continuation down.
📊 What stands out:
⚠️ Weak follow-through after bounce
📉 Momentum fading on extension
🧱 Supply zone ahead (0.0410 – 0.0465)
📍 Short Setup:
👉 Entry: 0.0390 – 0.0410
🛑 Stop Loss: 0.0465
🎯 Targets:
• TP1: 0.0320
• TP2: 0.0295
• TP3: 0.0250
⚠️ If this resistance zone rejects, expect a clean rotation back to lower support levels.
👀 When rebounds get absorbed… the next move is usually fast.
💬 Are you fading the bounce or waiting for confirmation?

😎 April was a record-breaking month in the history of crypto protocols with 28 hacks.
In total, $635 million was stolen — the most notable:
⚪️KelpDAO — $293,000,000
⚪️Drift — $285,000,000
⚪️Rhea Lend — $18,400,000
⚪️Grinex — $15,000,000
⚪️Volo Vault — $3,500,000
Out of these, only Drift was compromised through social engineering. The other 27 were due to exploiting technical vulnerabilities in smart contracts and infrastructure.
It's interesting to wonder how many of these hacks were actually hacker attacks? #Grinex #DRIFT $BNB $BTC
