CertiK links Tornado Cash deposits to $1.58M drain
- —CertiK flagged Tornado Cash deposits from an address tied to a $1.58M drain
- —Likely cause is a leaked private key or multisig failure, not a contract exploit
- —Victims and specific assets remain unidentified; report dates conflict
- —On October 20 an Aztec exploiter deposited about $3M into Tornado Cash
Why it matters: The case underscores that key compromise remains the main theft vector, while mixers complicate recovery of funds.
