ETH Project Exposes 100 North Korean IT Workers in Web3

The post ETH Project Exposes 100 North Korean IT Workers in Web3 appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

A six-month ETH Rangers initiative funded by the Ethereum Foundation has uncovered around 100 suspected North Korean IT workers operating under fake identities inside 53 Web3 and crypto projects. The investigation, led by the Ketman Project, highlights a coordinated infiltration effort targeting blockchain firms through disguised developer profiles and freelance roles. The findings underline growing human-layer security risks in crypto, where attackers exploit hiring pipelines rather than just technical vulnerabilities to gain access and control within organizations.
