ZEC tied to Bitget hack moves into Zcash shielded pool

  • —ZachXBT: Bitget hack funds entered the Ironwood pool in three transactions
  • —The 2,746 ZEC were worth roughly $3.9 million at the time of transfer
  • —Ironwood launched with the NU6.3 upgrade activated on July 28, 2026
  • —Bitget was breached on September 24, 2026, via a compromised third-party security product
Why it matters: Routing stolen funds into a shielded pool sharply reduces traceability, complicating recovery efforts by the exchange and investigators.
