Canaan의 전 회장인 Jack Kong은 내부에서 암호화폐 프로젝트 해킹에 직면합니다.
해커의 오랜 비밀 작전에는 비밀번호를 캡처하고 하드웨어 지갑을 조작하는 것이 포함되었습니다.
In an alarming revelation, Jack Kong, the former chairman of the leading computing hardware company Canaan, disclosed a serious breach in one of his crypto investments. This wasn’t an external cyber-attack but a betrayal from within – an insider was the mastermind behind the theft.
Having gained Kong’s trust, this inside operative spent significant time undercover, meticulously photographing critical passwords and even going to the extent of modifying hardware wallets. Their elaborate scheme, however, didn’t go unnoticed for long.
Kong의 신뢰를 얻은 이 내부 요원은 중요한 비밀번호를 꼼꼼하게 사진으로 찍고 심지어 하드웨어 지갑을 수정하는 등 잠복 작업에 상당한 시간을 보냈습니다. 그러나 그들의 정교한 계획은 오랫동안 눈에 띄지 않았습니다.

Upon realizing the magnitude of the hack, the insider decided to flee, choosing Thailand as a sanctuary. But his escape wasn’t to last. Thanks to the prompt collaboration between Chinese law enforcement and their Thai counterparts, the hacker was arrested and subsequently extradited to China in a swift 48-hour operation.
The rapid arrest not only highlights the efficiency and reach of Chinese authorities in such matters but also serves as a cautionary tale for the crypto industry. Trust, even when placed in close associates, can sometimes lead to vulnerability. With the crypto landscape’s evolving challenges, both individuals and institutions must remain vigilant, continuously updating security protocols and maintaining a skeptical approach to internal and external threats.
