In a recent development, the hacker responsible for the $82 million Orbit Chain exploit has reportedly moved approximately $48 million of the stolen funds to cryptocurrency mixer Tornado Cash. This move is seen as an attempt to launder the illicitly obtained money.

Tornado Cash is a privacy-focused Ethereum mixing service that allows users to send or mix their Ether in a non-traceable manner. By using this service, the hacker is likely trying to obscure the trail of the stolen funds, making it harder for authorities to track.

This incident once again highlights the challenges in ensuring security and transparency in the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry. It underscores the need for robust security measures and regulatory oversight to prevent such exploits and ensure the integrity of digital assets.
