Families holding decades-old judgments against North Korea are attempting to seize 30,765 ETH frozen following an rsETH exploit, according to a post on Arbitrum DAO forums. The families cite alleged links between the attack and DPRK-linked hacking groups, including Lazarus, and are invoking a New York restraining notice to potentially block Arbitrum from releasing the funds.
Legal Claim and DPRK Connection
The families’ claim centers on connecting the rsETH exploit to North Korean hacking activity. By citing alleged ties to Lazarus and other DPRK-linked groups, they argue that the frozen funds may be proceeds or assets related to the attack. The New York restraining notice serves as the legal mechanism through which they seek to prevent the funds from being released or moved, effectively freezing them pending resolution of their decades-old judgments against North Korea.
