BlackRock met with the SEC and went straight to the point: staking must be included in any real ETH ETF. They claim that without staking, returns are lost and investor value is diluted. They also pitched tokenization of real assets. Their $2.9B BUIDL fund already operates on the blockchain — showing how it can be done cheaper and faster. With ETH demand rising and institutions making moves, this could mark a shift in the market.

Massive Breach Confirmed In a shocking update, Bybit CEO has confirmed that more than $380 million—roughly 28% of the total stolen funds—from the February Lazarus Group hack have now become untraceable. This marks one of the most sophisticated laundering efforts in recent crypto history. Laundering Through Mixers The stolen Ethereum was rapidly moved through a web of crypto mixers, including Wasabi Wallet, Tornado Cash, and Railgun. These tools are known for obscuring transaction trails, making it difficult for even advanced blockchain forensics teams to follow the money. Cross-Chain Confusion To further complicate the trail, Lazarus utilized multiple cross-chain bridges—such as THORChain, LI.FI, Stargate, and SunSwap—to hop across different blockchain networks. This tactic is increasingly popular among hackers to fragment and disguise large transfers. Exit Through the Shadows In the final stage, the attackers successfully cashed out their crypto through peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms and over-the-counter (OTC) desks. This move effectively turned stolen ETH into fiat currency, completing the laundering cycle without leaving a clear trace. Tracking Trail Gone Cold The original attack in February saw a total of 500,000 ETH (approximately $1.4 billion) siphoned from Bybit wallets. Despite the efforts of blockchain sleuths, the remaining funds are growing harder to trace by the day. As for recovering that missing crypto? Don’t hold your breath.
