Wallet from 2023’s $23 Million Bitrue Hack Becomes Active, Launders Funds via Tornado Cash

On-chain data shows a wallet from the 2023 Bitrue hack is now actively laundering millions in stolen funds through Tornado Cash.
  • Hacker converts $16.34M DAI back to ETH and launders $12.65M via Tornado Cash.
  • Stolen Bitrue tokens were swapped into ETH, then sold and reused for laundering.
  • Wallet still holds $8.04M DAI and 3,510 ETH, signaling ongoing laundering activity.

A crypto wallet linked to the $23 million Bitrue exchange hack of April 2023 has resurfaced after months of dormancy, with new on-chain movements showing a calculated effort to launder the stolen funds. 

According to data shared by blockchain analyst @EmberCN, the attacker is actively converting assets into Ethereum (ETH) and funneling them through Tornado Cash, a well-known crypto mixer.

The laundering activity marks the latest chapter in a long-running saga that began when various assets, including ETH, QNT, GALA, and SHIB, were stolen from the exchange.
