History

NiceHash was founded in 2014 by Matjaž Škorjanc, a former medical student turned computer programmer,[4] and Marko Kobal. On December 6, 2017, approximately 4,700 Bitcoins (US$64 million at the time of the hack) were stolen from NiceHash allegedly by a spear phishing attack.[5] On December 21, Kobal resigned as the CEO.[6] On that day, the company also re-opened its marketplace after the attack. On February 17, 2021, the North Korean hacker group Lazarus was indicted for the hack.[7][8]

Škorjanc was one of the creators of malware called Mariposa botnet and served four years and ten months in a Slovenian prison.[9] On June 5, 2019, US law enforcement reopened a case in the operations of the Mariposa (Butterfly Bot, BFBOT) malware gang.[10] In 2019, the FBI moved forward with new charges and arrest warrants against four suspects, including Škorjanc.[11][12] Matjaž was detained in Germany in 2019 for eight months. Germany and Slovenia rejected the American requests for extradition due to double jeopardy and he was released in 2020.[13]

Škorjanc announced that the CEO in 2024 would be Vladimir Hozjan.[14]
