As reported by 528btc, blockchain investigator ZachXBT claims that Danny Zulfiqar, a UK-based threat actor allegedly involved in the $243 million theft of bitcoin from Genesis creditors via the Gemini platform in August 2024, may have been arrested in Dubai. The report states that $18.58 million in cryptocurrency was discovered in a specific Ethereum address, with the fund concentration pattern aligning with law enforcement actions. Dubai authorities have not yet confirmed the claim, but the allegations expand the investigation into the social engineering theft, which U.S. prosecutors have linked to broader extortion charges.
