The Arbitrum Security Council has frozen roughly $30.5M linked to the Binance exploit, bringing the total frozen to over $2.83B. The exploiter address and transaction hash were published. Stolen funds from the $6.3B Binance exploit and $388M Bitget exploit were commingled at one address after arriving via THORChain, suggesting the same actor is behind both. The Bitget incident was attributed to DPRK-linked TraderTraitor, which overlaps with prior exploits such as Kelp DAO. Per Zachxbt, Chinese illicit actors laundering the Bitget funds are openly seeking order support in public Discord and Telegram channels.
