In a recent case that shocked the cryptocurrency world, Bitsquery Web Retriever recovered $230 million in stolen funds, previously laundered through Tornado Cash, a popular Ethereum mixing service. Here’s how they did it and what this recovery means for victims of cryptocurrency theft.
Tornado Cash is a tool that allows users to obscure the origin and destination of their cryptocurrency transactions, making it a favored method for criminals looking to hide stolen funds. When a large-scale heist resulted in the theft of millions in Ethereum, the stolen funds were quickly laundered through Tornado Cash, making it difficult to trace.
However, Bitsquery Web Retriever specializes in advanced blockchain analysis, even in cases where funds are laundered through services like Tornado Cash. By utilizing cutting-edge forensic tools, they were able to de-anonymize portions of the transactions and trace the movement of the stolen Ethereum.
The team at Bitsquery then coordinated with multiple cryptocurrency exchanges to freeze the funds once they were identified. The result was the recovery of $230 million in stolen Ethereum, an unprecedented success in the world of cryptocurrency recovery.
This case highlights Bitsquery Web Retriever’ unmatched expertise in tracking stolen cryptocurrency, even when criminals attempt to use advanced laundering techniques. Their ability to recover such a large sum demonstrates that no case is too complex for their team of experts.
