A prominent wallet’s private key was compromised and the stolen funds were subsequently transferred into the Wasabi obfuscation tool for transaction mixing. The victim sought assistance from our MistTrack team (https://misttrack.io/). The team performed a withdrawal analysis of the stolen funds mingled within the Wasabi Coinjoin, successfully tracing and recapturing the flow of funds. Later, the hacker initiated cross-chain transactions with the funds. The MistTrack team discovered historical traces of the hacker’s address moving funds to an exchange, prompting them to assist law enforcement in contacting the exchange, submitting requests for investigation, and implementing risk controls for related accounts. The hacker further transferred the stolen funds to relevant accounts on exchanges, and a portion of the stolen assets was successfully frozen.
