A wallet linked to the Drift Protocol hack sent about 25,700 Ether, worth roughly $61 million, to Tornado Cash over two hours after two months of inactivity, according to blockchain analytics platform Lookonchain. Tornado Cash is a mixer that obscures transaction trails. Arkham said addresses linked to the exploiter held about 81,454 Ether, worth roughly $194 million.
Drift reported about $295 million in losses from the April 1 hack. It said a forensic investigation attributed the attack to UNC6862, a North Korean threat group. Drift opened claims and redemptions for DFX recovery tokens on Oct. 1; the tokens give affected users a claim on a recovery pool that held about $3.1 million at launch and receives exchange revenue and any recovered funds.
