A pro-Israel hacker group stole $81 million worth of crypto from Iran’s largest crypto exchange, Nobitex, adding to the conflict between the two countries.
Iran-based crypto exchange Nobitex suffered a hack on June 18. Pro-Israel hacker group Gonjeshke Darande claimed responsibility for the $81-million crypto theft.
