Investigation Links KelpDAO and Humanity Protocol Hacks
- Hack Connection: Analyst Specter revealed that the $292 million stolen in the April KelpDAO bridge hack may be linked to the June Humanity Protocol private key theft, as assets from both breaches have merged in shared wallets, indicating a single laundering operation.
- Funds Flow Path: The Humanity Protocol hacker transferred 15,403 ETH (approximately $23.6 million) into a new Ethereum address, which was then bridged to the Bitcoin network, pooling with proceeds from the KelpDAO hack, suggesting coordinated asset movement.
- Legal Challenges: Legal proceedings against North Korea complicate recovery efforts, with plaintiffs seeking to seize approximately 30,766 ETH (about $71 million) linked to the KelpDAO hack, arguing these assets should be confiscated due to their connection to North Korea.
- Technical Analysis: The KelpDAO attack involved a simultaneous DDoS attack on external nodes, deceiving the Ethereum bridge contract into releasing 116,500 rsETH, demonstrating the hackers' successful infiltration of LayerZero Labs' internal RPC nodes and highlighting vulnerabilities in network security.
