Suspected Polymarket Attacker Swaps $2.65M for POL, Moves 28.64M Tokens

The suspected attacker's conversion of stolen stablecoins into POL and subsequent movement of tens of millions of tokens is a notable laundering pattern: swapping into a volatile asset and splitting transfers can obscure on-chain trails and complicate recovery. The hardcoded backup address in a third-party wallet-draining script points to supply-chain exposure rather than a direct Polymarket breach, which matters for how other platforms assess vendor risk. Polymarket's reimbursement pledge addresses user losses, but whether the moved POL is traced or frozen remains the open question.
