Unfortunately, this is not the first time Tornado Cash has been associated with a malware attack. In a recent development on October 19, the hacker responsible for the theft directed the stolen funds to Tornado Cash, depositing a total of 1,500 BNB into the mixing service.
On September 11, Certik issued an alert regarding a wallet linked to over $24 million in stolen cryptocurrencies that converted 600 Ethereum (ETH) worth approximately $936,000 into Tornado Cash. Additionally, Tornado Cash’s founders have faced money laundering charges related to North Korea.
