Russian Nationals Indicted for Mt. Gox Crypto Hack

The US Department of Justice has indicted two Russian men for the 2011 hack of Mt. Gox, accusing them of siphoning out coins from the exchange for three years until it declared bankruptcy in 2014. Meanwhile, a study has found a vast network of child exploitation images and videos being sold and even commissioned on Instagram's open, public network, with automated recommendation algorithms promoting more CSAM materials to users who sought that horrific content. The notorious Russia-linked ransomware gang known as Clop has taken responsibility for stealing data from "hundreds of companies" through a vulnerability in the file-transfer service MOVEit Transfer, while cryptocurrency tracing firm Elliptic has found blockchain evidence tying a $35m hack of Atomic Wallet to North Korean state-sponsored hackers.
