Balancer Attack Linked to North Korean Hackers, Funds Moved to THORChain

Analyst @ai_9684xtpa posted on X that hackers have been actively laundering funds, with the Balancer attacker transferring 5,609 ETH, valued at $13 million, to THORChain over the past nine hours. The Balancer platform suffered a theft exceeding $116 million, with suspicions pointing to the same group involved in the Aave attack, identified as the North Korean hacker organization Lazarus Group. Both incidents have seen frequent use of Tornado Cash for laundering activities.
