Hackers Net $48M as Ethereum Surges — Monitor Stolen Funds
I note that three separate hacker groups have unwittingly profited from Ethereum’s recent rally, with the Radiant Capital attackers seeing roughly $48.3 million in stolen assets appreciate further in value.
This development highlights a growing on-chain risk: stolen reserves can amplify illicit gains when market prices rise, and large moves by those addresses could create sudden sell pressure or reputational headwinds for the protocol.
I’m monitoring on-chain flows and exchange deposit activity closely; investors should be aware of this tail risk even if the fundamental story for Ethereum remains intact.
Analysis
Recommendation
Watch addresses and exchange deposits for signs of liquidation; avoid buying into short-term pumps tied to opaque flows and consider reducing near-term exposure if large stolen balances begin moving.
