Thutski, Crypto Journalist | Instagram

An X user named Thutski, an independent crypto journalist, said that European regulators are intensifying their investigations into OKX's Web3 service following allegations that hackers laundered $100 million in stolen cryptocurrency through the platform. This statement was made on X on March 11.

"they're cracking down," said Thutski.

According to Bloomberg, European regulators are scrutinizing OKX’s Web3 platform after hackers allegedly used it to launder $100 million in stolen cryptocurrency from Bybit. The investigation is part of broader European Union enforcement under the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulations and may result in penalties for OKX.

Bloomberg also reports that North Korean hackers have increasingly targeted cryptocurrency exchanges, with illicit proceeds exceeding $1.5 billion from Bybit alone. These funds are often laundered through decentralized platforms and cross-chain bridges to avoid detection.

Thutski is recognized as an independent journalist who covers significant developments within the cryptocurrency industry. His reporting focuses on regulatory actions, exchange security, and blockchain transparency. He is widely followed for his analysis of market trends and compliance issues.

According to Axios, OKX was founded in 2017 and is based in the Seychelles. It is one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges but has faced regulatory scrutiny in multiple jurisdictions. Recently, it paid over $500 million in penalties for unlicensed transactions in the United States.
