Laywer pops up on Arbitrum DAO forums seeking funds for victims of decades-old North Korean terrorist acts
CoinDesk
An attorney is seeking to seize frozen Arbitrum funds to satisfy court judgments against North Korea for past terrorist attacks.Summary
Attorney Charles Gerstein has intervened in an Arbitrum DAO governance discussion, attempting to block the release of 30,765 ETH frozen following a recent exploit. Representing families with $877 million in legal judgments against North Korea, Gerstein argues that since the funds are linked to the DPRK-affiliated Lazarus Group, they should be treated as state assets to settle unpaid debts. This move has created a complex conflict between the rights of the original hack victims and the claims of long-standing terror victims, while also highlighting the legal ambiguity regarding the liability of DAOs.
