French banking group Credit Mutuel Arkea has confirmed it suffered a cyberattack, while blockchain investigator ZachXBT claims hackers stole more than 133 million dollars and laundered part of it through cryptocurrency platforms.
The bank has confirmed the attack itself; the 133 million dollar figure is ZachXBT's claim, not a figure the bank has confirmed.
Why it matters: the gap between a confirmed breach and an unverified theft claim is where bank customers and markets live for days, and it shows how crypto laundering claims now travel faster than official statements.
