The hacker, who stole 234 million dollars from the stock market, started to launder the funds
The hacker, who hacked WazirX, one of India's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, in July and stole cryptocurrencies worth 234 million dollars, sent 2600 ETH to Tornado Cash. Hackers or hackers are thought to belong to the North Korean-linked Lazarus group.
The person or people behind the WazirX hack attack have started taking crypto and money laundering steps. According to the information given by the blockchain tracking and research firm Arkham, hackers or hackers sent 2600 ETH to Tornado Cash.
As it will be remembered, in the attack in July, many assets, including well-known cryptocurrencies such as PEPE, Shiba Inu, MATIC, were stolen from the WazirX exchange, and later most of these cryptocurrencies were converted into Ether.
Since July 21, withdrawals have been closed on the WazirX stock exchange.
Tornado Cash, which is among the apps banned by the US and where one of its developers is in prison in the Netherlands, is known as one of the most used applications by crypto hackers, although it provides transaction privacy. The hackers are thought to belong to the North Korean-linked Lazarus group. Lazarus made its name known to the whole world in 2022 with the $600 million worth of cryptocurrency it stole from the Ronin sidechain. The US claims that Lazarus helped fund North Korea's nuclear studies.
