Drift hacker washes $63M through Tornado Cash, leaving recovery claims in limbo
Summary
A wallet linked to the April 1 Drift exploit deposited 25,710 ETH, worth about $63.1 million, into Tornado Cash on Oct. 20 through 258 transactions, leaving about 3.98 ETH. The transfers came more than six months after Drift said attackers took control of its Security Council powers and withdrew roughly $280 million. Drift’s investigation attributed the attack to North Korean group UNC6862. The protocol has opened claims and redemptions through its Recovery Pool, but how much stolen money will be recovered remains unclear.
