US Officials Tie North Korean Hacker Group to Axie’s Ronin Exploit

Ronin – a sidechain that is connected to the main Ethereum blockchain but allows the developers behind play-to-earn game Axie Infinity, Sky Mavis, to support faster and cheaper transactions – was hacked last month, losing 173,600 ETH and 25.5 million USDC, worth $625 million at the time. It ranks among the largest exploits in crypto history.
