DragonEx reported that attackers stole more than 20 cryptocurrencies from the exchange on March 24, 2019, prompting external tracing of roughly $6 million in digital-asset movements. Chainalysis later described the compromise as a Lazarus operation that used the fake Worldbit-bot company, supporting website and social-media personas, and malicious software delivered through social engineering against exchange staff before laundering the stolen funds through cryptocurrency infrastructure.
