[U.S. Law Firm Accused of Using Old North Korea Case Ruling to Repeatedly Apply for Seizure of Frozen Crypto Assets in Hacker Cases] A U.S. law firm representing the families of victims of DPRK (North Korea) kidnapping/murder cases is leveraging a 2009 ruling related to the 2000 'Reverend Kim' kidnapping case to apply for the seizure of funds in multiple Lazarus Group hacking incidents involving frozen crypto assets. On-chain analyst ZachXBT pointed out that the law firm has repeatedly used its publicly available on-chain tracing results to claim priority rights to the frozen assets in cases such as Harmony and Bybit. However, these claims are not directly related to the specific hacking incidents themselves, causing delays or even obstruction in the process of recovering assets for the actual victims of the hacks.
