Bybit Battles to Track 88.87% of Stolen Assets
Bybit has faced a significant challenge since a $1.4 billion theft occurred, with hackers converting 440,000 ETH into 12,836 BTC. These assets were dispersed across 9,117 wallets, indicative of sophisticated laundering attempts using BTC mixers. The utilization of Wasabi, CryptoMixer, Railgun, and TornadoCash has complicated recovery.
The rise in traceable funds has brought hope for asset retrieval, with 86.29% already converted into approximately 1.23 billion USD in BTC. Ben Zhou stated that current efforts focus on decoding mixer transactions, a notable challenge requiring bounty hunters for decoding efforts.

Market observers are watching closely, as the hackers transferred 193 BTC, primarily using Wasabi mixers. The dispersion to P2P traders exacerbates recovery efforts, making every valid bounty report crucial. Zhou emphasized the need for continued vigilance amid these laundering attempts.
