The Cyvers blockchain security platform reported that a hacker transferred 2,600 ETH to Tornado Cash to launder stolen funds.

According to DeBank, on September 2, the criminal's wallet received $6.7 million. The hacker made 26 separate transfers of 100 ETH to Tornado Cash in just one hour.

This event came after WazirX announced that users could withdraw up to 66% of their Indian rupee token balances almost a week before the scheduled opening of the withdrawal window.

According to the exchange, the withdrawal period was originally scheduled for September 9, but the date was changed to give users access to their funds earlier.
