This method leverages the immutable nature of blockchains to store and distribute malware via smart contracts, making it difficult to detect or remove. The attack often involves compromising websites and using JavaScript loaders to retrieve malware from blockchains. Experts warn this marks a shift from crypto theft to weaponizing blockchain systems for cyber warfare.
