Blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis said the Binance hacker swapped about $325 million in an apparent effort to avoid asset freezes, according to a report cited by The Defiant. The firm said roughly $2.8 billion in related assets has been frozen so far. Chainalysis also described transaction patterns that, in its view, point to automated laundering activity. The source material available for this item is limited and does not include additional detail on wallet addresses, counterparties, or the exact route of the transfers. The report centers on two main findings: the scale of funds moved despite freeze efforts, and the structure of onchain activity that Chainalysis says suggests automation.
