A Campaign Now Documented Across Two Full Months

From March 20 through May 20, 2024, the NEW_DAISYCLOUD-CHAMPIONING Telegram channel was documentng consistent daily credential releases targeting U.S. users. That's a two-month window of sustained infostealer activity -- with some day-to-day variance in volume, but no apparent extended pauses. The March 20 release (8,545 records) sits at the lower end of the series, but it confirms the operation was active and posting from the very beginning of its documented history.

From 8,545 to 54,210: The Scale of Growth

The March 20 total of 8,545 records is about 16% of the campaign's peak output (54,210 records on May 10, 2024). In roughly seven weeks, the operation's daily output grew by more than six times. Whether this reflects malware growth, more aggressive distribution, or natural variance at scale is difficult to determine -- but the trajectory from March 20 to May 10 tells a clear story of an operation that didn't slow down.
