Kraken froze accounts related to $133 million suspected stolen funds involving a certain European institution and is cooperating with law enforcement agencies in the investigation

According to Cointelegraph, Kraken has restricted accounts related to a suspected theft of over $133 million in cryptocurrency assets involving an unnamed institution in Europe, and is cooperating with law enforcement to recover the funds. Kraken stated that this incident did not originate from its platform, its security systems were not breached, and customer accounts were not compromised.Previously, on-chain investigator ZachXBT discovered that the suspected stolen amount increased by an additional $27 million from the previously disclosed $106 million. Bitquery data shows that approximately $62.98 million in stablecoins was exchanged for 27,553 ETH within about 4 hours. Kraken, Crypto.com, and OKX have all been reported to be involved in the related fund flows, with Crypto.com taking measures to prevent the related funds from being transferred through its platform, while OKX stated that it is investigating.As of the reporting time, approximately $78.3 million remains in wallets associated with the attackers, while about $30.5 million has been transferred out. The identity of the victims and ZachXBT's speculation about a large financial institution in Western Europe being attacked and attempting to cover up the incident have not been confirmed.

first_img Kraken's parent company plans to become Hyperliquid's first deployment entity regulated by the CFTC

The cryptocurrency trading platform Kraken's parent company Payward announced its intention to become the first CFTC-regulated deployer on the HIP-3* market of the on-chain perpetual contract infrastructure Hyperliquid. Payward will deploy a perpetual futures market for U.S. customers based on Hyperliquid as the infrastructure layer.Upon obtaining regulatory approval, Payward's designated contract market and derivatives clearing organization Bitnomial, which is regulated by the CFTC, will act as the HIP-3* deployer, responsible for creating, holding, and managing the relevant market, as well as completing contract clearing and settlement. If approved, Payward's CFTC-registered futures commission merchant NinjaTrader Clearing will take over customer accounts.Hyperliquid stated that HIP-3 will support optional deployer configurations for licensed markets in future network upgrades, with the new features collectively referred to as HIP-3*. At its core is an on-chain whitelist managed by the deployer or its sub-deployers, which is an incremental option for HIP-3, with the decision to enable it made by the deployer, while existing markets remain unchanged. The initial version has been launched on the test network, and the specifications are still preliminary and may be adjusted based on feedback. Hyperliquid stated that HIP-3* deployers are independently operated entities that use their on-chain infrastructure to operate their own markets and retain control and responsibility over the deployment.
