Wallets linked to the $295 million April hack still held $138 million in Ether after sending another $46 million to the mixer Wednesday.
A Drift exploiter-linked wallet transferred 18,800 Ether, worth about $46 million, to Tornado Cash on Wednesday.
The exploiter transferred $61 million in Ether to the crypto mixer on Tuesday, taking its two-day total to 44,510 ETH, or $109 million, as blockchain data tracker Onchain Lens said on X.
The transfers to Tornado Cash make the funds harder to trace and represent nearly 37% of the $295 million stolen from decentralized exchange (DEX) Drift in April. The attack ranks as this year’s third-largest crypto hack, according to DefiLlama.
The Drift exploiter-labelled wallets still held 56,569 Ether, worth roughly $138 million after Wednesday’s flurry of transfers, Arkham data shows.
The Solana-based DEX reported about $295 million in losses from the April 1 hack, which its security consultant Mandiant attributed to a North Korean threat group.
Drift opened claims and redemptions for DFX recovery tokens on Oct. 1, giving affected users a claim on a pool that launched with about $3.1 million and receives exchange revenue and recovered funds.
