TRM Labs Links Ongoing Crypto Thefts to 2022 LastPass Breach

Published at 2026-01-03 10:30:14

Blockchain analytics firm TRM Labs reports it has traced a series of ongoing cryptocurrency thefts back to data exposed in LastPass's 2022 breach. Their analysis connects targeted wallets and exchange accounts to credentials and vault data leaked during that incident, indicating attackers continue to harvest and exploit older breach data to monetize access.

The development matters because it highlights the long-lived impact of credential breaches: reused or compromised passwords and weak authentication allow historic leaks to fuel fresh losses. TRM's findings are a reminder for exchanges, custodians and users to rotate credentials, enforce stronger authentication, and monitor for suspicious logins. Affected users should change passwords, enable multi-factor authentication and audit any connected accounts or wallets immediately.
