Two wallets linked to the CoinStats exploit from June have moved 311 ETH to Tornado Cash to obfuscate their fund flows. One moved 211 ETH, while the other sent 100 ETH to the mixer, amounting to $959,000. Crypto mixers like Tornado Cash are used by a wide array of individuals for anonymizing their transactions.

On the 16th of February, the company behind Rabby Wallet announced the launch of the beta version of its mobile app. Unfortunately for fans of the platform, the app you find when searching for Rabby Wallet on the iOS App Store is, in fact, a drainer with no ties to the real app. 🚨 A FAKE iOS app has resurfaced....
