Lazarus Group is rumored to have been responsible for hacks and exploits worth about $3 billion in cryptocurrencies over the last three years. The organization has wallets worth $79 million that Arkham, a blockchain analysis company, has identified.

The Lazarus Group’s wallet received 27.371 Bitcoin (BTC) in two transactions, according to data from Arkham, before sending 3.34 BTC to a wallet that had already been used. It was unknown who made the coin mixer.

What is a Coin Mixer?

Generally, tracking the origin and transfer of cryptocurrency is a simple task because of the transparency of blockchains. A coin mixer, also known as a tumbler, is a blockchain-based protocol that may be used to mix up coins from other users before distributing them, covering up who owns what. Thus, it is impossible to determine who received what.
