**Upbit Hack Investigation: North vs. South Korea Crypto Drama!**
- South Korean police have finally uncovered the mastermind behind the 2019 Upbit hack! Who else but the North Korean hacker gang, Lazarus and Andariel, who are said to be affiliated with the DPRK's top intelligence agency. 🎭
- At that time, 342,000 ETH disappeared from Upbit's hot wallet. The value? It used to be around $50 million, now it could reach more than 1 trillion won! 😱
- Cooperation with the FBI uncovered North Korea's IP traces and virtual asset flow patterns. Most of the stolen Ethereum was converted into Bitcoin at a low price.
- The good news is, 4.8 Bitcoin was successfully rescued from Switzerland and returned to Upbit. Bravo!
- Even so, Upbit remains an easy target. This year alone, there have been more than 159,000 hacking attempts. Whoa, be careful!
