ZachXBT: There is a convergence of funds between the Humanity Protocol and Kelp DAO attackers

Bitget • June 27, 2026

According to Odaily, ZachXBT posted that an hour ago, the stolen funds from the recently attacked Humanity Protocol and Kelp DAO converged, suggesting possible overlap between the attackers involved in both incidents.

Kelp DAO's LayerZero bridge was compromised on April 18, 2026, with approximately $292 million stolen due to infrastructure damage. Lazarus Group has been accused as the attacker. The Humanity Protocol team's address and deployer suffered a theft of $32 million on June 9, 2026, due to developer device compromise.

The new evidence above eliminates the possibility of insider involvement in the attacks.

ZachXBT Links Humanity Protocol and Kelp DAO Attacks to Overlapping Attackers On June 27, 2026, on-chain analyst ZachXBT reported that stolen funds from the Humanity Protocol and Kelp DAO exploits show signs of overlap, indicating a potential connection between the attackers. Kelp DAO suffered a significant breach on April 18, 2026, when its LayerZero bridge was compromised, resulting in a loss of approximately $292 million, attributed to the Lazarus Group. Similarly, on June 9, 2026, about $32 million was stolen from the Humanity Protocol due to a compromised developer's device. The new evidence suggests that insider involvement in these attacks can be ruled out. The convergence of funds raises concerns about the methods and motivations of the attackers involved. 10 sources 62
