$11 Million Returned: 79AU Hot Wallet 79thVault Attacker Returns 15,000 BNB
Odaily News: According to PeckShield monitoring, the attacker behind 79AU's operational hot wallet 79thVault has returned 15,000 BNB, worth approximately $11 million, to a wallet address designated by the project team. Additionally, the attacker had previously deposited 30 BNB into KuCoin. The disposition of the remaining funds is currently unclear. Earlier, 79thVault on BNB Chain suffered losses of approximately $12.5 million, possibly due to a private key leak. The team's operational hot wallet typically only makes small transfers to the reward pool, but recently the address transferred 2.01 million 79AU from trading pairs to external addresses in 7 transactions, with amounts of 10,000, 100,000, 100,000, 300,000, 500,000, 500,000, and 500,000 tokens respectively.
