ZachXBT: It has been confirmed that the victim of the $330 million BTC transfer incident that caused the big pump of XMR is an elderly American citizen.
Foresight News reported that according to on-chain detective ZachXBT, the $330 million Bitcoin transfer event that caused a 50% rise in XMR price on April 28 has been confirmed as a social engineering theft case against an elderly American. The attacker used social engineering techniques to gain access to the victim’s wallet, transferring 3,520 BTC (worth $330.7 million). The stolen funds were quickly laundered through more than 6 instant exchanges and converted into Privacy Coin XMR, leading to a surge in XMR price. ZachXBT had previously denied that North Korean hackers could be behind the attack.
