ZachXBT Links US Seized Crypto Theft to Contractor CEO’s Son

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT has alleged that the individual responsible for stealing millions of dollars in cryptocurrency from U.S. government-controlled wallets is John Daghita, the son of Dean Daghita, CEO of Command Services and Support (CMDSS). The company was contracted by the U.S. Marshals Service to manage seized digital assets. ZachXBT linked online persona “Lick” to the theft, tracing transactions back to a government wallet tied to the 2016 Bitfinex hack. Approximately $23 million was consolidated into a single wallet during the incident. CMDSS has not commented, and no criminal charges have been filed.

Hundreds of Wallets Drained on EVM Chains With No Root Cause, ZachXBT Warns — $107K Lost So Far and Counting

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT warns of a coordinated attack draining hundreds of crypto wallets across multiple Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible chains, with no confirmed root cause yet identified. The incident has resulted in approximately $107,000 in losses so far, with the total continuing to rise. Each affected wallet lost relatively small amounts, typically under $2,000, suggesting a broad but low-value attack designed to avoid detection. ZachXBT flagged a suspicious address potentially linked to the activity. This follows a separate security incident over the Christmas holiday involving unauthorized withdrawals from self-custody wallets, which Trust Wallet later confirmed was related to its Browser Extension version 2.68. These incidents highlight ongoing security risks in the EVM ecosystem, despite long-term efforts to strengthen network resilience, such as the Ethereum Foundation's "Lean Ethereum" initiative aimed at improving security and scalability.

Trust Wallet Hacked: What Crypto Users Should Do Now

Trust Wallet has confirmed a security incident specifically affecting its Chrome browser extension version 2.68, advising users to immediately disable and upgrade to version 2.69. Mobile-only users and those on other extension versions are not impacted. The breach was first flagged by on-chain investigator ZachXBT, who reported multiple users had funds drained. Cybersecurity firm PeckShield estimates losses exceeded $6 million, with a portion sent to centralized exchanges. Trust Wallet is directing affected users to contact support, and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao has stated that Trust Wallet will cover the estimated $7 million in losses. Users are urged to update their extensions and avoid using version 2.68 until upgraded.

ZachXBT flags suspected Trust Wallet extension issue as users report drained funds

Security concerns emerged around the Trust Wallet browser extension on December 25, after blockchain investigator ZachXBT flagged suspicious activity potentially linked to a recent update. Reports suggest a supply-chain compromise may have been introduced in a December 24 update, where newly added code could silently exfiltrate sensitive wallet data—particularly during seed phrase imports—leading to immediate fund draining. Multiple users reported losses, with unverified estimates exceeding $2 million. The malicious code allegedly sent data to a recently registered external domain mimicking Trust Wallet infrastructure. The issue appears limited to the browser extension, with no evidence of mobile app compromise. Trust Wallet has not yet issued an official response or advisory. Researchers emphasize the situation remains under investigation, warning users to avoid importing seed phrases into the extension until clarified. If confirmed, this would represent a significant supply-chain attack.
