🚨 LIQUID NETWORK SEES ~4,000 BTC MOVE AS “WHITEHATS” LEAVE ONCHAIN MESSAGE
Roughly 4,000 of 4,200 BTC associated with a Liquid Network peg-out transaction appears to have moved at once.
An OP_RETURN message attached to a subsequent transaction reads:
“we are whitehats. contact us on chain”
TXID:
c103de95817b43f2df635ec6f35ff126ca26a7c6d20570c4b01866b2b3e69a19
The nature of the transaction and whether the funds were moved through an exploit remain unclear, but it does not look good.
