Commenting on the events, CSO Nick Percoco, said:

“Don’t trust, verify. This core crypto principle is more relevant than ever in the digital age. State-sponsored attacks aren’t just a crypto, or U.S. corporate, issue – they’re a global threat. Any individual or business handling value is a target, and resilience starts with operationally preparing to withstand these types of attacks.”

It's funny to see the CSO of a crypto firm say this. It's the opposite of the whole way crypto works. In crypto, the transaction is processed (trusted) if all the credentials and keys are correct, regardless of who's behind it.
