BlockBeats news, September 25: Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated during a live Q&A on the platform security incident that preliminary investigations found some related IP addresses match VPN services used by a certain North Korean hacker group, and the attack pattern is similar to previous actions by North Korean hackers, so the involvement of this group in the attack involving approximately $351.6 million cannot be ruled out. However, the attribution is still in the preliminary investigation stage.Gracy Chen stated that Bitget currently does not believe this incident is an insider job. The attackers directly breached the platform's systems and transferred funds, without forging user withdrawal requests or obtaining the private keys of cold or hot wallets. Investigators are still confirming the specific affected systems and the attackers' method of intrusion.
