This is the best summary I could come up with:

Additionally, the souk, where ransomware operators and other miscreants trade pilfered information, showed profile pics of admins Baphomet and ShinyHunters behind bars, which several infosec spectators took to mean that both had been cuffed.

Meanwhile, there has been no official statement from the US Department of Justice or the FBI about the takedown — which is unusual, compared to other high-profile cybercrime busts over the past couple of years.

This particular dark-web souk has been an ongoing thorn in the side for police over the past couple of years, with BreachForums taking over after a similar operation shut down RaidForums in 2022.

“The reconstitution of Breach Forums is not surprising,” said Austin Berglas, also a former FBI agent who now works as global head of professional services at BlueVoyant.

Ensuring that all personnel with access are in custody and offline, identifying and seizing critical infrastructure to include the removal of the entire financial, technical, and communication network is necessary to dismantle and severely limit the ability to reconstitute," he told The Register.

Berglas is a former assistant special agent in charge of the FBI’s New York Office Cyber Branch, and during his tenure the bureau dismantled LulzSec, a group linked to Anonymous, and arrested its leader Sabu in June 2011.
