The latest update on the FTX hack comes as PeckShield, a security firm, tracks the wallet “FTX Accounts Drainer.” In a series of multimillion-dollar trades, this suspected crypto address is swapping decentralized stablecoin DAI for ETH.
This wallet received funds from various international and US-based FTX wallets, which amassed $340M in cryptos as of November 14, including 160k ETH, 148k BNB, and 145k SOL. When FTX confirmed the hack on Telegram, Tether blacklisted $31.4 million in Tether USDT tokens linked to the transactions.
