FTX forewarns exchanges to freeze stolen funds to prevent hacker cashing out

Resumo:Exchanges were warned to be on high alert in order to freeze assets if the hacker attempted to cash out.

On Nov. 20, FTX announced that exchanges should be on the lookout for unauthorized fund transfers from FTX Global and related debtors on Nov. 11.

The transfers were made via intermediary wallets, and FTX advised exchanges to take all necessary steps to ensure that the unauthorized funds were seized and returned to the bankruptcy estate.

Prior to the FTX announcement, Chainalysis, a blockchain data platform, tweeted a thread explaining that funds stolen from FTX were on the move and that exchanges should be prepared to freeze them if the hacker decides to cash out.

According to Chainalysis, reports that FTX's stolen funds were sent to the Securities Commission of The Bahamas (SCB) were false. The Chainalysis team confirmed that some of the funds had been stolen, but others were sent to regulators.
