North Korea’s Lazarus Group has stolen over $500 million in April with new malware attacks, and Arbitrum froze $71 million from the Kelp DAO exploit. Ethereum logs its busiest quarter ever, and the industry ramps up $200 million in midterm spending—markets show renewed energy but remain sensitive to geopolitical and security developments.
