The attacker behind the Drift Protocol exploit has funneled a sizable Ether stash into the sanctioned mixing service, according to blockchain trackers. An attacker connected to a security breach at Drift Protocol has moved $109 million in Ether into Tornado Cash over the past two days. The figure was reported by Cointelegraph and CryptoBriefing, both citing on-chain data tracking the exploiter's wallet activity. Drift Protocol operates as a decentralized exchange and trading platform built on Solana, offering perpetual futures and lending products. Exploits targeting DeFi protocols typically involve attackers draining liquidity pools or manipulating smart contract logic to extract funds.
