According to the post by Cyvers Alerts, 5 thousand Ethereums were sent to another location in a suspicious manner from the address of the Huobi (now known as HTX) exchange. The crypto tracker concluded that this was most likely an attack. The market value of the transferred ETH tokens is almost 8 million dollars.
Cyvers Alerts stated that the Huobi exchange offered a 5 percent “white hat” bonus to hackers who stole altcoins. Exchange officials gave the hacker until October 2, 2023 to return the Ethereum he stole.
