Arbitrum's Security Council froze 30,766 ETH (about $71 million) connected to the Kelp DAO hack, securing roughly 25% of the $292 million stolen. The freeze, approved by nine of twelve council members, moved the assets to a governance-controlled address, blocking attacker access. North Korea's Lazarus Group is suspected behind the exploit, which targeted Kelp DAO's LayerZero bridge. The move sparked debate over decentralization but aims to protect users and aid recovery efforts. Kelp DAO and partners are now working on loss distribution and legal actions.
