According to Lookonchain, the whale address "TLBL" has experienced another major asset security incident, with cumulative losses exceeding $50 million. Of this total, the address previously lost approximately $24 million due to a phishing attack two years ago; in the latest incident, it is suspected that over $26 million in assets across 3 wallets were completely transferred out due to a private key leak. This incident has once again sparked market concern regarding security management risks for high-net-worth on-chain addresses.
on-chain detective ZachXBT disclosed in a personal channel post that a whale suspectedly suffered an asset theft a few hours ago, with approximately 180,900 SOL (worth about $14.2 million) being abnormally transferred. ZachXBT stated that he collaborated with another on-chain security analyst, Specter, to analyze the related transactions, identifying unusual unstaking activities and fund transfers from the Solana network across to Ethereum. It is reported that the address belongs to one of Solana's early participants and is associated with the Genesis block allocation. This unusual operation involves a large amount of SOL assets. The specific attack method, destination of the funds, and whether it was due to a private key leak have not yet been confirmed.
According to Decrypt, an anonymous cryptocurrency whale filed a lawsuit against Coinbase this week in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, accusing the exchange of refusing to return over $55 million worth of DAI stablecoins stolen in a phishing attack in 2024. The plaintiff claims to have engaged multiple on-chain investigation firms to trace the funds, ultimately identifying that the stolen assets flowed into a Coinbase account. Coinbase confirmed in December 2024 that it had frozen the relevant assets but refused to return them, citing the need for a court order. As of today—more than a year and a half after the incident—the victim has still not recovered the assets and has therefore turned to litigation. The attack was carried out by hackers using the “Inferno Drainer” tool to spoof the DeFi Saver login page; after the victim inadvertently interacted with the fake page, their wallet was fully compromised by the attackers.
According to on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain (@lookonchain), an OTC whale previously purchased 163,405 ETH (approximately $440 million) and 4,000 cbBTC (approximately $296 million). Due to the KelpDAO rsETH cross-chain bridge vulnerability, this whale was unable to withdraw ETH normally from Aave and was forced to discount-swap 7,438 aEthWETH (approximately $16.83 million) for 1,930 stETH and 5,272 ETH, incurring a loss of approximately 237 ETH (about $540,000). The whale has since withdrawn 98,032 wstETH (approximately $272 million) and 3,000 cbBTC (approximately $221.6 million) from Aave, leaving 10,000 ETH (approximately $22.8 million) still deposited in Aave.
According to on-chain analyst Onchain Lens (@OnchainLens), Kelp DAO lost approximately $294 million in the cross-chain bridge exploit. As a result, $ZRO dropped from $2 to $1.40. A whale holding a long $ZRO position on HyperLiquid was partially liquidated, incurring a loss of $2.88 million. The whale still holds the position, with an unrealized loss exceeding $750,000 and a total loss of approximately $28.98 million.
