On the X platform, "on-chain detective" ZachXBT pointed out that certain law firms in the United States are using their investigative work and on-chain forensic results to help victims of hacking incidents file legal claims, but this practice may actually affect the victims' ability to receive compensation or recover funds.In previous hacking incidents involving the Lazarus Group, these law firms typically intervene only after their on-chain fund tracking or freezing is completed, and propose follow-up legal actions that are weakly related to the crypto incidents themselves. They have also employed similar strategies for "free-riding claims" in incidents involving Harmony, Bybit, and others. ZachXBT also called for the crypto community to establish a DAO to resist such behavior.

Multiple independent sources have confirmed to Caixin that the founding partner and director of a law firm in Chongqing has recently been taken away by relevant authorities. This lawyer is Peng Jing, the founding partner and director of Chongqing Jingsheng Law Firm. There is speculation that she has numerous connections with the officials who have recently fallen from grace.According to analysts, lawyers from law firms are usually not taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, "but Peng Jing has a very large network, and her case involves too many people." On March 20, 2026, Chongqing Mayor Hu Henghua was reported to be under investigation, and on April 17, Luo Lin, a member of the Chongqing Municipal Committee and secretary of the Liangjiang New Area Committee, was also announced to have fallen. Reports from the local political and business circles in Chongqing suggest that the downfall of Hu Henghua and Luo Lin is related to bribery and money laundering through stablecoins, and "Peng Jing may be a key figure, helping others launder money under the guise of collecting legal fees." Sources indicate that in the Hu Henghua case, Lin Kechuang, the son-in-law of Lin Xiucheng, gave Hu Henghua 30.8 million USDT (approximately 210 million yuan, of which 10 million was for exchange fees). After Hu Henghua was investigated, the cold wallet was controlled, and authorities traced the funds from six other cold wallets held by Lin Kechuang; among them, a transfer of 15.5 million USDT that occurred simultaneously with Hu Henghua's was claimed by Lin Kechuang to have been sent to Luo Lin. Luo Lin was taken away by relevant authorities on April 14, 2026, and his home was searched on the evening of April 15, but this cold wallet was not found. Subsequently, authorities found Luo Lin's cold wallet at a third party's home.
