North Korea is likely culprit behind $6.3bn crypto hack, ‘largest heist in history’
63億ドルの暗号資産強盗が教えてくれた「検証」の重み——Meta Questで分子の中に入って確かめた夜 北朝鮮による過去最大規模の暗号資産ハッキング。バイナンスが約30億ドルを凍結し、全額補填を表明したニュースをスマホで追いながら、私は自分のデスクに置かれたMeta Quest 3をじっと見ていた。 2024年の冬、ある創薬プロジェクトでリード化合物の設計を任されていた。標的はあるキナーゼのATP結合ポケット。AlphaFold DBの予測構造を信じて、ドッキングシミュレーションを回し、合成ルートまで組み上げた。予算も時間も使い果たした時点で、共同研究先の結晶構造解析データが届いた。 RMSD 2.8Å。ポケットの形状が根本から違っていた。…
The largest cryptocurrency heist in history, estimated at $6.3 billion, may have been orchestrated by North Korea. Reports of the suspected hack, involving the loss of around $30 million from Binance, were received by the author as they wore a Meta Quest 3 headset. This incident highlights the importance of verifiable tools in the crypto world, where even the most secure code can be compromised.
The author used NexoPeek, a Meta Quest-exclusive molecular lab developed by Seven Sportz, to perform spatial verification. This tool, which allows users to see and interact with molecular structures in a 3D space, is crucial for protecting research projects. The NexoPeek experience, which includes features like AI pocket prediction, ligand scanning, and distance measurement, emphasizes the need for hands-on verification in scientific endeavors.
