$83 Million In Stolen XRP From Bitget Hack Moving On-Chain

Published by

More than $83 million worth of XRP stolen in the Bitget hack is now being moved by the attacker. Since Ripple has no ability to freeze wallets on the XRP Ledger, exchanges remain one of the few points where the stolen funds could potentially be intercepted before cashing out. Roughly $75 million of the stolen XRP still sits untouched in the original wallets.
