\"Kelp<\/p>\n

The Kelp DAO attacker has moved $175 million of stolen Ether in an apparent bid to start laundering it after the $290 million exploit.<\/p>\n

The attacker behind the roughly $290 million Kelp DAO exploit began moving tens of thousands of Ether to newly created blockchain addresses on Tuesday, in an apparent effort to start laundering the stolen funds.<\/p>\n

The wallet tagged<\/a> by Arkham as linked to the Kelp DAO exploit moved about 75,700 Ether (ETH<\/a>) worth roughly $175 million across three transactions on Tuesday, including a 25,000 ETH transfer to one newly created address and transfers of 50,700 ETH and 0.7 ETH to another.<\/p>\n

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT wrote<\/a> in a Tuesday Telegram post that addresses tied to the exploit had begun moving funds through THORChain<\/a> and Umbra. He flagged three THORChain transactions totaling about $1.5 million and a separate $78,000 transfer through Umbra.<\/p>\n
