Hacker groups associated with North Korea are continuously upgrading their attack methods against individuals in the cryptocurrency industry. They are using AI-generated deepfake video calls to impersonate people familiar to or trusted by the victims, enticing them to install malware.Martin Kuchař, co-founder of BTC Prague, revealed that attackers initiate video calls using compromised Telegram accounts and lure victims into installing malicious software disguised as a plugin under the pretext of "fixing Zoom audio issues," thereby gaining complete control over the devices. Security research firm Huntress pointed out that this attack pattern is highly consistent with previous disclosures regarding actions against cryptocurrency developers. The malicious scripts can execute multi-stage infections on macOS devices, including implanting backdoors, logging keystrokes, stealing clipboard content, and accessing cryptocurrency wallet assets.Researchers have strongly attributed this series of attacks to the North Korean state-sponsored hacker group Lazarus Group (also known as BlueNoroff). The information security head of blockchain security company SlowMist stated that such attacks exhibit clear reuse characteristics across different operations, targeting specific wallets and cryptocurrency professionals. Analysts believe that as deepfake and voice cloning technologies become more widespread, images and videos are increasingly difficult to serve as reliable evidence of identity authenticity. The cryptocurrency industry needs to remain vigilant and strengthen multi-factor authentication and security measures.

ChainCatcher news, BitwiseInvest advisor Jeff Park pointed out in an article that Benjamin Graham's "The Intelligent Investor" is no longer applicable to the current market, and the traditional "Newtonian investors" relying on earnings and discount models are gradually becoming ineffective. He believes that global investment is entering an era of "ideological investors," where capital allocation is increasingly driven by geopolitical, artificial intelligence, and cultural factors, rather than purely by yield models.In this framework, Park views Bitcoin as a deep value asset: its code operates beyond geopolitical interference; its consensus mechanism reflects the value of computing power and is unrelated to the AI paradigm; its community culture is globally unified and decentralized. He stated that Bitcoin possesses both hedging and belief attributes, allowing it to maintain resilience amid institutional changes and ideological conflicts, thus becoming a core asset for ideological investors.
