Approximately $25 million was stolen due to suspected private key leaks, and $24 million was lost due to phishing attacks in 2023

Comparative news, according to ScamSniffer monitoring, a cryptocurrency holder is suspected to have lost about $25 million in two wallets in just 15 minutes due to private key leaks. Two addresses belonging to the same victim transferred all assets — including DAI, WBTC, aUSDC, LDO, susDE, and native ETH — to a brand new address.

Within an hour, the stolen funds were exchanged for DAI and ETH: of these, 20 million DAI were transferred to another address, and about 3,000 ETH remained at the consolidated address. The incident was suspected to be a private key leak, and unconventional fishing authorization.

Notably, the victim's address is the same wallet that lost 4851 rETH and 9579 stETH (approximately $24 million) in September 2023 due to signing a phishing incremental transaction. At the time, the attackers eventually returned about 90% of the stolen funds.
