Unknowns stole $7.9 million from the hot wallet of the HTX (formerly Huobi) exchange

On September 24, hackers attacked the exchange's hot wallet and stole approximately 5,000 ETH. The suspicious transaction was noticed by the Cyver Alerts service.

The hacker then transferred 1001 ETH to another wallet.

The HTX team migrated the wallet, and sent a message to the hacker's wallet that his identity was identified and offered to voluntarily return the funds by October 5, and receive 5 percent of the reward from them. Otherwise, they will turn to the law enforcement agencies after the expiration of the established period.
