Bitget reported a breach of its wallet backend that resulted in about $387.5M in cryptocurrency being stolen; withdrawals were suspended, the company engaged Mandiant and SlowMist, and losses will be covered from a User Protection Fund while a bounty program incentivizes freezing/recovering attacker funds. On-chain analysis, IP addresses and behavioral signatures linked the theft to North Korean-associated Lazarus Group, and law enforcement and other platforms have been notified.
