Arbitrum's Security Council seized 30,766 ETH from the KelpDAO hacker, valued at $71 million, but a US court order now prevents the DAO from accessing the funds. According to BeInCrypto, lawyers for North Korean kidnapping victims aim to claim the money under a 2015 judgment against Pyongyang. The legal action halts Aave and KelpDAO's plans to compensate users affected by the April 18 hack. The freeze highlights how centralized governance actions can lead to assets being pulled into US courts. The Southern District of New York issued the order, barring Arbitrum from transferring the seized assets.
