China claims US government stole 127K Bitcoin from LuBian mining pool in 2020
Summary
China, through its cybersecurity agency CVERC, has accused the US government of stealing 127,000 Bitcoin from the Chinese mining pool LuBian during a 2020 cyber attack. The theft, allegedly conducted by a state-level hacking group connected to a US operation, involved assets worth about $127 million at the time, but are now valued over $13 billion. This accusation surfaces amid increasing geopolitical tensions between Beijing and Washington over digital asset control and cross-border seizures, especially following recent revelations by Arkham Intelligence regarding asset movements linked to the hack.
