WARNING: There is a DPRK scammer pretending to be @George_harrap on Telegram. They will try get you to join a fake Teams link and the meeting might look legit.
Do not engage with this scammer.
Remember, when in doubt: ask them to insult Kim

Since the Lazarus attack in February 2025, Bybit has been working on recovery from every possible angle.
Today, we took another step forward.
Bybit has filed a civil lawsuit against the DPRK and the Lazarus Group, and secured a preliminary injunction freezing identified stolen assets while the case moves forward.
So far, we have recovered about $48.4M, with another $30.5M frozen across more than 28 exchanges and custodians.
This has taken a lot of cooperation across exchanges, blockchain analytics firms, custodians and law enforcement agencies .
The attack was against Bybit, but the problem is much bigger than Bybit. Cybercrime is a threat to the entire crypto industry. We will keep working with everyone who can help trace, freeze and recover stolen assets and we’ll keep using every lawful tool available.
The fight isn’t over. We keep pushing to build a new financial platform that is safer for everyone.

Six months ago, @Josh_E_Wa and I started @flint_trade_ with support/guidance from @Ergonia_.
Our goal: build the next-generation of DeFi on Solana by specifically targeting the current shortcomings.
Since then, we've built a killer team and with their help, laid the foundation for a suite of upcoming programs, services and tools which will unlock the power of Solana for more users than ever.
Very proud to show off our first offering: an end-to-end system which provides access to Solana flow via active liquidity provision mechanisms. The shortcoming addressed here is the necessity to build out Solana-specific infra and talent in order to provide active liquidity on-chain.
@flint_trade_ abstracts away the nuances of the chain like gas, fees, and transaction landing; letting market makers focus solely on pricing and inventory. This is a massive unlock. While there is a fair amount of active liquidity on Solana already, magnitudes more waits on the sideline due to the overhead cost. No more; I believe we'll see that the depth we've had so far is not depth.
A key aspect of the design exemplifies how we think about solutions in the space. While 'nice-to-have' parts of the system are off-chain, the core, the soul, the essence is on-chain. That is something we don't want to compromise on; real DeFi is on-chain and protocols should not incur 'downtime' because 'our' servers go down.
Another thing I/we deeply believe is that the power of real decentralization, composability, transparency and verifiability should speak for itself; a good product is a good product because of its actual domain-specific merits; not just because it's built on a particular platform. For us, Solana is the platform that enables that merit; it's not just a name to tweet mindlessly.
The last while has been very heads-down for me; moving from the infra layer building the block engine and BAM at @jito_labs into the layer-spanning domain between infra and product; has been incredibly brain-stretching but rewarding. Feels great to be applying everything I've learned in the trading and blockchain space in a holistic fashion.
This is just the start; many exciting things lie ahead. Super excited to be more public with this; hoping to write more about the journey.
Always looking for feedback and guidance; so feel free to reach out.

yo @blknoiz06 you need to fix @BullpenFi solana wallet sign-in when using Ledger. Off-chain message signing is broken and needs special handling.

I call bullshit. NSA would never disclose this if it was true. Just another ploy to stiff the public.
BREAKING: The NSA's own director says Mythos broke into almost all of its classified systems in hours.
Per The Economist, Senator Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said General Joshua Rudd, who runs the NSA and the Pentagon's Cyber Command, told him this directly.
This came out on June 11, the same day Amazon reportedly found a separate jailbreak in Anthropic's models. Within hours, Trump ordered Anthropic to cut off foreign access to Mythos and Fable.
Anthropic shut both down completely instead.
Now there are two competing stories for why this actually happened.
One says the shutdown was a response to the NSA's own classified systems getting breached in hours.
The other says Anthropic is privately pushing back, calling the jailbreak minor and the shutdown an overreaction to something other AI models can already be tricked into doing.
The NSA was already using Mythos for its own cyber operations, with Anthropic engineers embedded inside the agency. The same tool the agency was actively relying on is the one its own director says broke into almost everything it owns.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The NSA breach by Mythos occurred during an authorized red-team exercise to test vulnerabilities, not an unauthorized hack. techtimes.com/articles/31878… digg.com/tech/mno1ygvv
