This operation traced a transaction to a wallet associated with North Korea's Lazarus group and issued a freeze order to prevent the transfer of funds. Approximately $11.7 million has been returned to victims, and Bybit data shows that about 5% of the stolen Ethereum is currently frozen, with over $870 million still missing.
