PeckShieldAlert attributed a Friday, Oct. 23 deposit of 300 Ether (ETH) and 30.4 BNB, worth about $740,000, to the attacker linked to Cysic’s bridge exploit. The assets went into Tornado Cash, a mixing protocol that makes deposits and later withdrawals harder to connect. The deposit alone does not establish that the funds were sold or recovered. The exploit involved an unauthorized mint of 10 million Cysic (CYS) tokens on BNB Chain. At 8:31 a.m. ET (12:31 UTC) Saturday, Oct. 17, the attacker minted the tokens. Selling began about five minutes later.
