Upbit Reports Major Hack in South Korea

Earlier, South Korea's largest crypto exchange Upbit suffered a massive hacking attack as a portion of Solana-affiliated assets worth approximately 54 billion won (US$36.9 million) was confirmed to have been transferred to an unauthorised wallet address, said Oh Kyung-seok, the chief executive officer of Dunamu, reports Yonhap news agency.

"We plan to cover the full amount lost with assets from Upbit, to ensure no damage occurs to customers' assets," he added.

A notification was issued to customers, following a joint press conference held with portal operator Naver and its fintech arm, Naver Financial, on their merger.

Biggest Upbit Breach Since 2019

The incident is the largest security breach at Upbit in six years, following the illicit transfer of approximately 340,000 Ethereum tokens worth 58 billion won to an anonymous account on November 27, 2019. Meanwhile, the central bank raised its 2025 economic growth forecast for South Korea to 1 per cent, citing a recovery in private consumption and solid exports.
