Aztec Exploit Wallet Moves $953k Through Tornado Cash
A wallet linked to the Aztec Private Rollup Bridge exploit has deposited an additional 300 ETH into Tornado Cash, bringing its total transfers to 500 ETH, worth about $953,000. This follows a June exploit where the bridge lost approximately $2.165 million.
Tornado Cash is used to obscure the origin of stolen funds, making recovery efforts more complicated.
The Aztec team clarified that the affected bridge was a legacy product separate from its current network.
Continued movement of stolen assets through Tornado Cash highlights ongoing challenges in tracking and recovering crypto theft proceeds.
