Indian crypto exchange WazirX said it halted withdrawals from the platform after discovering that one of its wallets had been breached, an exploit that analysts suspect was carried out by North Korean hackers.
WazirX, in a statement on its X account, didn’t give an estimate of the amount of crypto that may have been lost. Blockchain security firm Cyvers said $234.9 million of assets have been drained from the exchange and moved to a new address.
