Harmony Bridge Hack
- Bridge
- ZachXBT
Harmony disclosed a ~$100M theft from its Horizon bridge, after attackers drained bridge-held assets and began laundering proceeds across Ethereum. U.S. authorities later attributed the hack to North Korea’s Lazarus Group (APT38). ZachXBT tracked subsequent laundering flows onchain, including large movements of Harmony-hack ETH routed through privacy tooling (e.g., Railgun) during the 2023 laundering phase.
