Bitrefill Discloses Suspected North Korean Hack in Early March Leading to Customer Data Breach

Bitcoin payment service provider Bitrefill disclosed on X that it suffered a cyber attack on March 1, 2026, leading to a customer data breach. The attack originated from a compromised employee laptop, allowing the attacker to access parts of the database and cryptocurrency wallets. The investigation indicates the attack method is highly similar to past attacks by the North Korean DPRK Lazarus/Bluenoroff hacker group targeting crypto companies. Approximately 18,500 purchase records involving limited customer information (email, crypto payment addresses, and IP metadata) were accessed, with about 1,000 of those records containing customer names stored encrypted but potentially accessible. Bitrefill stated that customers do not need to take special action but advised vigilance against unusual messages.

Aster Chain Mainnet Launches: Building an Institutional-Grade Private and Fair DeFi Market for Traders

Analyst: With Fed Rate Decision Approaching, Bitcoin May Face Fluctuations Between $68,000-$80,000

Greeks.live macro researcher Adam posted on X that the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision for this month will be announced at 2 AM this Thursday. Currently, futures markets show a 99% probability of no change. For next month’s meeting, the market currently sees a 97% probability of no change. The Fed’s influence on the market may be relatively limited for the next two months. Bitcoin is currently oscillating around $74,000, with the Fear & Greed Index neutral:

1. Hawkish Signal: If the dot plot shows only 1 or even 0 rate cuts in 2026, market expectations would decline, liquidity would tighten, and BTC would very likely retest the $68,000 support level.

2. Dovish Surprise: As long as Powell mentions “inflation is under control” or “focus on the labor market,” improved liquidity expectations would directly push towards the $80,000 level.

3. X-Factor: Kevin Warsh. The policy preferences of Trump’s nominee for the potential new chair, Warsh, are more unpredictable than Powell’s. The market fears a “policy vacuum” or a “hawkish transition” the most. Before the April meeting, institutional funds might choose to de-risk and sell, leading to sharp volatility in altcoins.
