PANews reported on December 5th that, according to Hackread.com, cybersecurity firm Hudson Rock discovered an infected device while analyzing logs from the LummaC2 information-stealing malware. The operator is suspected to be a malware developer within a North Korean state-sponsored hacking group. This device was previously used to build the infrastructure that supported the $1.4 billion theft from the cryptocurrency exchange Bybit in February 2025. Analysis revealed that the credentials found on the device were linked to domains registered before the attack and used to impersonate Bybit. The device itself was high-end, equipped with development tools such as Visual Studio and Enigma Protector, as well as communication and data storage applications like Astrill VPN, Slack, and Telegram. Its activity also indicated that the attackers purchased the domains and prepared fake Zoom installers to carry out phishing attacks. This discovery provides rare insights into the internal workings of asset sharing within North Korean-backed hacking operations.PANews reported on December 5th that, according to Hackread.com, cybersecurity firm Hudson Rock discovered an infected device while analyzing logs from the LummaC2 information-stealing malware.

U.S. Court Finds Pastor Found Guilty in $3M Crypto Scam
The post U.S. Court Finds Pastor Found Guilty in $3M Crypto Scam appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crime 18 September 2025 | 04:05 A Colorado judge has brought closure to one of the state’s most unusual cryptocurrency scandals, declaring INDXcoin to be a fraudulent operation and ordering its founders, Denver pastor Eli Regalado and his wife Kaitlyn, to repay $3.34 million. The ruling, issued by District Court Judge Heidi L. Kutcher, came nearly two years after the couple persuaded hundreds of people to invest in their token, promising safety and abundance through a Christian-branded platform called the Kingdom Wealth Exchange. The scheme ran between June 2022 and April 2023 and drew in more than 300 participants, many of them members of local church networks. Marketing materials portrayed INDXcoin as a low-risk gateway to prosperity, yet the project unraveled almost immediately.

Colorado regulators argued that the couple’s faith-based appeal was central to the fraud.

In a video that drew worldwide attention earlier this year, Eli Regalado admitted the funds had been spent, explaining that a portion went to taxes while the remainder was used for a home renovation he claimed was divinely inspired. The judgment not only confirms that INDXcoin qualifies as a…
