A top Russian-language underground forum has been running a “contest” for the past month, calling on its community to submit “unorthodox” ways to conduct cryptocurrency attacks. The contest, which is likely to continue till September 1, will see a total prize money of $115,000 awarded to the best research. Most entries so far have been about instructions or tools for how to plunder cryptocurrency assets, which are unlikely to be of any “immediate significant value” to RaaS cartels.
