UXLink Exploit Perpetrator Moves $8.1M in Stolen ETH Through Tornado Cash

UXLink, a Web 3 social network targeted in September 2025, is making headlines once again. The attacker responsible for the UXLink exploit has started relocating stolen assets. According to Specter, an on-chain investigator, some of the stolen DAI stablecoins were converted into Ethereum (ETH), and roughly $8.1 million worth of ETH was deposited into Tornado Cash.

This is a common strategy used by attackers to conflate illegal funds with legal transactions and make blockchain tracing more difficult. The attacker has now reportedly laundered a total of $19.1 million in stolen assets, but still controls about $16 million in funds.
