[ZachXBT: British hacker Danny suspected to have been arrested, $18.58 million in crypto assets seized] December 5 news, on-chain investigator ZachXBT disclosed on his personal channel that British hacker Danny/Meech (also known as Danish Zulfiqar/Khan) is suspected to have been arrested by law enforcement agencies, with his crypto assets seized. He had been tracked and identified previously, and is suspected to be involved in the theft of $243 million in crypto assets from Genesis creditors in August 2024. Other individuals implicated in the case include Malone, Veer, Chen, and Jeandiel. Danny was also involved in the Kroll SIM card swap attack in August 2023, which exposed personal information of creditors from BlockFi, Genesis, and FTX. This incident subsequently led to targeted social engineering scams causing losses exceeding $300 million. Several hours ago, multiple addresses associated with Danny tracked by ZachXBT consolidated and transferred $18.58 million in crypto assets to an address starting with 0xb37d, a pattern resembling previous asset seizures by law enforcement agencies.
