The recent historical attack on Axie Infinity's Ronin Bridge resulting in a $633 million drain has been followed by the transfer of about $7 million worth of ETH to a privacy tool Tornado Cash, as confirmed by Peckshield's Twitter post.

Yesterday, the main Ethereum address behind the recent attack on Ronin Bridge labeled “Ronin Bridge Exploiter” has transferred 2,001 ETH in two transactions to Tornado Cash. Then, the second Ethereum address named “Ronin Bridge Exploiter 8” moved 2,000 Ether in 20 batches of 100 Ether each to the same Tornado wallet, the Etherscan data shows. As of now, the hacker’s wallet contains as little over 0.1 ETH, or about $382.96.
“The investigation continues, and at this stage, we cannot share more substantial information”, the Ronin team comments on its yesterday’s Twitter post.
