THIS IS INSANE.🤯 North Korea stole $285 million in 12 minutes. Drift is the biggest trading platform on Solana. The code was fine. Two audits found nothing wrong. North Korea didn’t touch the code. They went after the people. They made a fake token called CarbonVote. Put in a few thousand dollars to make it look real. Drift’s system thought it was worth hundreds of millions. Then they got the people who held the keys to sign off on transactions weeks before the actual attack. Nobody knew what they were approving. April 1: They pressed go. $285 million drained in 12 minutes. Every vault emptied. Token dropped 40%. The platform lost half its TVL overnight. Elliptic and TRM Labs both say it’s North Korea. Same pattern as the $1.4 billion Bybit hack last year. Same tools. Same speed. North Korea took $2 billion in crypto in 2025. That’s 60% of everything stolen in crypto worldwide. The US says that money funds their weapons program. And they’re doing it again this year. No bug. No exploit. They faked a token, fooled real people, and took $285 million. They spent months building trust. Then 12 minutes destroying it. That’s how it works now. #DriftInvestigationLinksRecentAttackToNorthKoreanHackers
