TechFlow News: On March 10, according to The Block, the Gwangju District Prosecutors’ Office in South Korea sold 320.8 bitcoins, generating 31.6 billion Korean won (approximately $21.5 million), which was deposited into the national treasury. These bitcoins were originally seized during a raid on an illegal gambling platform. They were stolen in August 2025 after prosecutors’ officials fell victim to a phishing attack, and were voluntarily returned by the hacker in February of this year. The prosecution then sold the bitcoins in batches over 11 days—from February 24 to March 6. The hacker remains at large, and the investigation is ongoing.
