TREE NEWS reports: The address tagged as the X100 attacker deposited 821.2 ETH, worth about $1.89 million, into the Tornado Cash mixer, PeckShieldAlert said on October 26. X100 suffered a flash-loan governance attack on October 24, losing roughly $4.75 million. Its X token fell 96% within 24 hours.
X100 Attacker Deposits 821.2 ETH to Tornado Cash After $4.75M Exploit
The move into Tornado Cash is the tell here: the attacker is prioritizing obfuscation over holding, which complicates any recovery and signals the exploit was premeditated rather than opportunistic. For X100 holders, the 96% token collapse is the real damage, and the mixer deposit makes clawback less likely. The open question is whether the governance weakness that enabled the flash-loan attack was unique to X100 or emblematic of similar small-cap structures. Watch for whether on-chain sleuths can trace the funds, and whether the mixer route draws fresh scrutiny.
