Whale 27.3 million USD theft case tracking: hackers move an additional 1,000 ETH and engage in疯狂洗钱

【BitPush】A serious security incident is unfolding on the chain. The Pidun Security Team has detected that the whale user who was hacked on December 18th due to private key leakage, resulting in the theft of $27.3 million worth of assets, has now suffered a second “harvest”—the hacker just withdrew 1,000 ETH (approximately $3.24 million) from the Aave platform and sent it into the TornadoCash black hole.

What’s even more concerning is that this is not an isolated incident. Tracking data shows that since the incident occurred, the hacker has transferred a total of 6,300 ETH to TornadoCash, equivalent to nearly $19.4 million RMB. Such large-scale money laundering operations reveal a current reality: even though on-chain transactions are transparent, there are still sufficiently mature mixing toolchains that allow malicious actors to exploit. For users holding large assets, private key management and wallet security have clearly become matters of life and death.
