The Drift Protocol exploiter has transferred approximately $109 million in Ethereum to Tornado Cash over the past two days, heightening concerns about the movement of funds stolen in one of the largest decentralized finance attacks this year. Blockchain analytics platform Onchain Lens reported that addresses controlled by the Drift exploiter sent a total of 44,510 ETH to Tornado Cash between October 20 and 21.
