Two days ago, a hacker tricked Nexus Mutual CEO Hugh Karp into signing a transaction that directed 370,000 NXM ($8 million) directly into the hacker's pockets.
After the attack, which was described by Karp as a "neat trick," the Nexus Mutual CEO offered the hacker the chance to return the stolen funds in full in exchange for $300,000. Instead, the hacker has since cashed out at least half of the stolen funds into Bitcoin, and has now directly asked Karp for ransom money representing almost ten times more than the bounty offered.
"Hello Hugh. I will not sell xNXM any more until xNXM recovers his value or you send me 4.5k ETH. If you need any negotiation with me, send msg to my eth address. Following your addresses. You are rich, Hugh," the hacker said.

By current prices, 4,500 ETH represents about $2.6 million.
In response, Karp said he doesn't have that much Ethereum, claiming the address cited by the attacker is owned by Nexus Mutual, not him personally.
As reported by Decrypt, the hacker seemingly managed to conduct a remote access hack on the Nexus Mutual CEO that employed the combination of a modified Metamask and hardware wallet.
New data from blockchain analytics company Scorechain has shown what happened since a hacker stole about 370,000 NXM ($8 million) from Nexus Mutual CEO Hugh Karp yesterday. The hacker used a combination of a modified Metamask and hardware wallet to trick Karp into signing a transaction that directed funds to the attacker’s address. Described as a “targeted personal attack” by Nexus Mutual, and a “very nice trick” by Karp himself, new data sheds light on exactly what happened. According to Sco...
Based on data provided by Scorechain, the hacker converted the stolen funds to wrapped NXM, then sold the wrapped NXM for ETH, before once again swapping the ETH into renBTC. This enabled the hacker to cash out half of the stolen funds into Bitcoin.
But there are still plenty of stolen funds yet to be cashed out.
Update: This article has been corrected to show it was 4,500 ETH not 450,000 ETH as originally written.
A quantum computing breakthrough could one day undermine the cryptography that secures the Bitcoin blockchain and its nearly $1.7 trillion worth of assets. Now, a BTC bounty is putting that threat to the test. On Wednesday, quantum computing research group Project 11 announced a prize of 1 BTC—currently worth nearly $85,000—for the first team to break a simplified version of Bitcoin’s elliptic curve cryptography, or ECC, using a quantum computer. We just launched the Q-Day Prize. 1 BTC to the...
Copy trading is a powerful tool in the crypto investor’s arsenal, enabling them to automatically replicate the strategies of experienced and successful traders. In the fast-paced world of crypto, timing is everything when it comes to mirroring the actions of top traders. Solana copy trading platform Odinbot has “first and foremost concentrated on speed,” the project’s PR lead Erik Demeters told Decrypt, becoming one of the fastest copy trading bots in the marketplace as a result. Odinbot claims...
Hugging Face is stepping into the world of humanoid robotics with Reachy 2, a $70,000 AI-powered robot designed and built by its latest acquisition, Pollen Robotics. “So excited to start selling Reachy 2 this week, the first open-source humanoid robot!” Hugging Face co-founder Clément Delangue tweeted. “It's expensive but already in use at Cornell, Carnegie Mellon & major AI labs for robotics research and education.” While open-source robots are not new, Reachy 2 is the first manufactured, comme...
