According to Odaily, Arkham monitoring shows that about 4 hours ago, a whale withdrew 440,249 WLD, worth nearly $250,000, from Bybit through a newly created wallet under its name. The address had previously purchased ETH through multiple transactions a week ago, with a total investment of over $1 million.
according to crypto analyst alicharts, during this Bitcoin pullback, whale cohorts have adopted an accumulation strategy for major cryptocurrencies. Over the past 72 hours, whale cohorts accumulated approximately 15,000 BTC, over 166,000 ETH, and 45 million XRP.
according to Lookonchain monitoring, an old wallet address had been operating securely for 8 years. After more than 4 years of dormancy, the address transferred funds to a new wallet one month ago, and subsequently CryptoBillis Ledger Drainer stole all 59 ETH from that wallet, worth $146,800.
据 Salus 监测，加密支付服务商 Triple-A 的攻击者已将 4,970 枚 ETH（价值约 1,240 万美元）转入混合清算工具 Tornado Cash。今年 7 月，该攻击者盗取了 Triple-A 自身财库的资产，公开估计损失约为 1,180 万美元。在将资金跨链桥接至以太坊网络并完成代币兑换后，攻击者于 9 月 6 日将资金分散至两个中间地址。10 月 9 日，攻击者通过单一钱包整合两笔资金流，并分批充值至 Tornado Cash，其中包括 49 笔 100 ETH 和 7 笔 10 ETH 的交易，其中部分资金来源于此前从混币器提取的款项。
According to on-chain intelligence platform Arkham (@arkham), the Grayscale Mini ETH ETF has cumulatively purchased $103.3 million worth of ETH over the past 20 days. During the same period, its older ETHE fund recorded $71.6 million in outflows, which is widely viewed by the market as an internal rotation of funds from ETHE to the Mini ETF. Factoring in the net flows across both products, Grayscale clients executed a net purchase of approximately $31.7 million worth of ETH during this period.
Analyst Jake Koch-Gallup posted that Ethereum's liquidity moat has not been breached, citing five reasons: first, ETH is not only a medium of exchange but also possesses reserve and collateral asset attributes; second, Ethereum still accounts for 65% of DeFi TVL, with the Layer 2 ecosystem continuing to expand, covering networks such as Base and Robinhood Chain; third, although Ethena's USDe share on Ethereum has dropped from 88% to 56%, Ethereum remains its largest network; fourth, while the stablecoin share has declined to 51%, if the overall market cap reaches $3 trillion, Ethereum capturing even 30% would see its stablecoin volume surge from the current $15.5 billion to nearly $1 trillion; fifth, Ethereum maintains over a decade of uninterrupted operation, a dominant developer ecosystem, a 36% staking rate, and continues to lead in institutional adoption and RWA activity, keeping its fundamentals firmly intact.
As of October 9, cumulative net outflows for Ethereum ETFs in October have reached $634.9 million, marking the largest monthly outflow since November 2025.
Odaily News: According to Lookonchain monitoring, 3 wallets suspected to belong to the same whale deposited 2,903 ETH worth $7.22 million into Coinbase after being dormant for over 9 years. These wallets received the ETH at $9.9 nine years ago, and currently have a profit of $7.19 million, representing a 250x return.
According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi, F2Pool co-founder WangChun (@satofishi) (0xF42...2b51) exchanged 235.51 WBTC for 7,848.53 ETH yesterday, worth approximately $19 million; over the past 7 hours, he withdrew another 5,173.41 ETH from Binance, worth approximately $12.86 million, at an average withdrawal price of $2,485.89.
according to on-chain analyst Yu Jin's monitoring, an address received 263 ETH from Tornado Cash yesterday, then swapped it for approximately 643,000 USDC and deposited it into Hyperliquid.The address opened a 40x leveraged cross-margin short position on 305.5 BTC, with a position size of approximately $25.38 million, an average entry price of $83,068, and a liquidation price of $84,088. The current unrealized profit is about $160,000. The source of the address's funds involves Tornado Cash, but it cannot yet be confirmed whether it is related to hacker activity.
According to on-chain analyst Onchain Lens (@OnchainLens), the hacker associated with the $90 million Ledger reseller incident has cumulatively deposited approximately $270,300 into Binance, including 256.57K USDT and 41.12K TRX (about $13,700), with the majority of funds already transferred to Binance's hot wallet. Previously, the hacker also used four wallets to deposit 430.2 ETH (approximately $1.07 million) into Tornado Cash for mixing, and converted USDT to USDD to evade Tether's fund freeze.
According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the suspected hacker behind the reported $90 million Ledger reseller incident has deposited 430.2 ETH, worth $1.07 million, into Tornado Cash through 4 wallets. After Tether froze the related funds, the hacker swapped USDT for USDD through SUN.io and USDD's PSM, with some funds also flowing into Binance hot wallets.The hacker's wallet tracked by Arkham currently holds a total of $70.6 million in assets, including 11,406 ETH worth $28.35 million; 213.371 BTC worth $17.65 million; 13.646 million USDD worth $13.65 million; and 10.909 million USDT worth $10.91 million. Onchain Lens is calling on Binance to investigate these transfers and freeze accounts associated with the stolen funds as soon as possible.
Starknet has published an introduction to its Quantum-Safe Bitcoin (QSB) scheme, stating that StarkWare researchers have verified a quantum-safe locking mechanism on the Bitcoin mainnet that requires no soft fork, no new opcodes, and no changes to consensus rules. The first QSB output was spent on August 26, 2026, in Bitcoin mainnet block 964,199, with the associated GPU computation cost reduced from approximately $320 to about $50. QSB builds its locking mechanism through hash computation, but each transaction still requires substantial computation, and moving assets into the scheme still requires a traditional transaction that carries quantum risk. The transaction does not comply with Bitcoin Core's default relay rules, and there is currently no accompanying wallet, address format, or recovery process. StarkWare stated that QSB is an emergency research solution, and that the long-term solution still requires the introduction of post-quantum signature mechanisms via a soft fork. Starknet's full quantum resistance also depends on the progress of Ethereum's underlying upgrades.
Odaily News: Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb Qureshi stated that the "bunker mode" proposed by Ethereum researcher Justin Drake to address the risk of AI cracking cryptographic signatures amounts to "cryptographic doomerism," and argued that migrating tokens to new addresses is not a real solution.Qureshi said that "bunker mode" can only protect assets that users have not yet transferred out of new addresses. If tokens in other addresses are attacked and heavily sold off, those assets could still lose value. He suggested that blockchain networks adopt a "Cryptographic Recovery Mode," using hash-based backup signature schemes that allow users to bind recovery mechanisms in advance, so that validators can assist in recovering assets after cryptographic signatures are cracked.Previously, Ethereum researcher Justin Drake warned that with the rapid improvement of AI mathematical capabilities, the ECDSA signature algorithm protecting crypto wallets could face the risk of being cracked within "months rather than years," and advised users to gradually migrate funds to new wallets that have not exposed public keys. Glassnode data shows that approximately 6.26 million BTC are currently held in addresses with potential risk. (Cointelegraph)
