Bybit has secured a court order freezing assets linked to North Korea following a lawsuit over a $1.5 billion theft in February 2025, according to Decrypt. The exchange has recovered $48.4 million and obtained a freeze on $30.5 million more, though the amounts remain a fraction of what the Lazarus Group allegedly stole.
