Pilfered Binance Loot Is Boosting DeFi Protocol Profits Investigator Reveals 🖤🕸️

Omg fr those DeFi protocols totally cashed in when North Korean hackers shifted hundreds of millions worth of stolen crypto from Binance on October 30. 🌑 On chain sleuthing shows the whole laundering spree pumped more than $100,000 in daily protocol revenue for five different services.

THORChain And Relay Raking It In With SunSwap 🖤

Blockchain investigator dethective dropped a fresh breakdown on November 2 of all the protocol revenues tied to DPRK linked wallets with SunSwap THORChain Relay Symbiosis and Chainflip pulling the biggest hauls. SunSwap pulled in $29,697 from the hacker action while THORChain snagged $28,184 right behind. Relay grabbed just over $23,000 Symbiosis half that amount and Chainflip closed the top five with $7,433 for a combined $101,144 total. The revenue spikes hit hardest at THORChain and Relay with daily numbers jumping 2,229% and 1,954% above their usual October levels. SunSwap saw an 815% lift while Symbiosis and Chainflip posted 358% and 194% gains. Dethective based everything on Elliptic FBI hack lists plus extra on chain traced wallets and counted every Tron transfer from October 29 to November 1 using DeFiLlama revenue rules. One possible router contract got left out though since the link to the Binance attacker wasnt fully confirmed and it might have raked in around $175,000 across 3,561 swaps involving about $58 million.

THORChain Swallowing Up Those Stolen Millions 💀

SomaXBT traced another $242 million moved through Tron in just two days out of the original $628 million stolen on the network where Tether froze over $378 million in USDT. On chain analysts still see more than $3 billion in untouched stolen funds sitting across other blockchains. THORChain became the hackers main exit for that $242 million moving over $48 million and the crew walked away with $42.7 million after losing $5.7 million to fees and slippage while interfaces took about $95,000 in affiliate fees. The FBI officially blamed the Binance heist on North Koreas TraderTraitor and Relay which barely moved in prior attacks this time handled a fat chunk routing about $48 million into Ethereum Bitcoin and the Lighter decentralized exchange. SomaXBT also tracked $32.1 million through Chainflip and $16.0 million via Symbiosis.
