Odaily reported, citing monitoring by PeckShield, that an address associated with the UXLINK attacker has carried out a series of on-chain fund movements. The address swapped approximately 14.6 million DAI for 8,298.6 ETH. DAI is a widely used stablecoin in the crypto market, while ETH is the native asset of the Ethereum network; the reported transaction shows that a large stablecoin balance was converted into Ethereum-denominated assets.

After the swap, the attacker deposited 8,340 ETH into Tornado Cash. Tornado Cash is an Ethereum-based mixing service used to break the direct visibility of fund flows on-chain. In addition to that deposit, the attacker also bridged 2.64 ETH from Ethereum to a BTC address, with the original report valuing that transfer at about $4,630.

PeckShield’s monitoring also showed that the attacker currently still holds 10.54 million DAI. The disclosed movements therefore include three main parts: about 14.6 million DAI exchanged for 8,298.6 ETH, 8,340 ETH deposited into Tornado Cash, and 2.64 ETH bridged to a BTC address. The remaining balance of the related on-chain address is based on the monitoring data cited in the report.
