🔥 It’s not just crypto! A French bank was hacked too, and the stolen funds may have flowed into crypto markets?
On November 4, French bank Crédit Mutuel Arkéa confirmed it had suffered a cyberattack!
Reports put the losses at $133 million, but the bank has yet to confirm the exact amount and said some funds have been frozen.
Even more startling, hackers entered the bank’s systems through a third-party service provider and transferred funds to other banks, where they may then have been converted into cryptocurrency!
The good news is that the bank says customers’ assets were not affected.
The issue this incident exposed: traditional banks can also serve as entry points in crypto money-laundering networks!
But that doesn’t mean the crypto blockchain itself was breached.
The key things to watch next: How much of the stolen money will be traced? How much can the platforms involved freeze and recover?
