Atomic Wallet users claimed that the platform and its CEO, Konstantin Gladych, knew about the system's vulnerability as early as 2022 but failed to take appropriate action, which led to huge losses.
Atomic Wallet was hacked earlier this month in an attack it claimed only affected 1% of users, and Elliptic reports that the Lazarus Group is laundering the money through the Garantex exchange.
Adoption momentum for Bitcoin SV (BSV), the only coin that follows the original Satoshi Vision for Bitcoin, continues to build. This week, more services have started integrating the coin, including Atomic Wallet, the multi-currency custody-free wallet that currently supports more than 300 coins and tokens.
