Gate News message. On April 2, according to on-chain analyst aryan, in the Drift protocol treasury attack incident, the attacker address received funds 8 days ago via NEAR Intents but remained inactive until it received a large amount of assets from the Drift treasury. The attacker moved the funds to multiple money-laundering addresses. Notably, all of these money-laundering addresses received funds yesterday through a certain CEX, and that CEX had performed KYC verification for these accounts. Subsequently, the money-laundering addresses transferred the funds to an Ethereum address via Wormhole, an address that had previously received funds via Tornado Cash.
