Blockchain analytical firm Peckshield tweeted that the Cream Finance (CREAM) exploiter transferred 365.7 ETH — worth $600,000 — to an unknown centralized crypto exchange TradeOgre on Jan. 30.
The exploiter had transferred 2,070 Ethereum — roughly $3.3 million — to the same platform since Jan. 9, according to Etherscan data.
The exploiter was moving funds from a $119 million exploit in October 2021, according to another blockchain security firm, Certik. At the time, the attacker used multiple flash loans to raise the price of yUSD and borrowed more assets than the attacker collateralized on the decentralized finance application.
