Solareum · 2024-03
Solareum, a Telegram trading bot, shut down days after a security breach involving wallet drainers that reportedly affected more than 300 Solana users and resulted in the loss of more than 2,800 SOL. Linked forfeiture evidence also describes a USDT seizure action tied to alleged identity theft, computer fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, and related conspiracies, but does not provide concrete North Korea-linked attribution for the Solareum incident.
