TREE NEWS reports: The Bitget hacker has moved roughly $83 million in stolen XRP out of three holding addresses, leaving about $75 million of the originally stolen 103 million XRP across five initial receiving addresses. On-chain data shows two addresses that each originally held 20 million XRP were nearly emptied, holding about 23 and 55 XRP respectively as of 12:41 UTC Saturday, while a third address fell to about 5.8 million XRP.

The consolidation pattern matters more than the headline figure: draining two addresses to near-zero while leaving one substantial balance suggests staged movement rather than a single sweep, consistent with attempts to break the on-chain trail before conversion. For exchanges and bridge operators, the residual $75 million across five addresses remains a live screening problem, since XRP's fast settlement gives little reaction time once funds hit a venue. Whether the remaining balances stay put or follow the same path is the open question, and the near-emptied addresses are the clearest signal of how quickly that window is closing.
