The National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center released a report stating that the LuBian mining pool was hacked in December 2020, and approximately 127,000 Bitcoins (currently worth over $15 billion) were stolen. The report pointed out that the incident stemmed from a pseudo-random number vulnerability in the private key generation algorithm, and hackers gained control through brute-force cracking. On-chain analysis shows that the stolen funds highly overlap with the Bitcoin addresses that the U.S. Department of Justice announced it had seized in October this year, suspected to be the same batch of assets.
