PeckShieldAlert’s October 20 alert says the Drift exploiter resumed sending ETH to Tornado Cash after about two months of inactivity, reporting roughly 21.3K ETH, or $50M, sent so far (alert). The wallet Arkham labels “Drift Protocol Exploiter” is 0xAa84…57C1.

TxnXray says deposits began at 07:08 UTC on October 20, in 100 ETH increments, with its latest noted at 08:39 UTC (post). Arkham’s counterparty record identifies the recipient as Tornado.Cash’s router and reports 236 outgoing transactions totaling about $56.4M across its recorded history. That supports the laundering route, but the supplied evidence does not independently confirm the alert’s 21.3K ETH as the current-day total; other posts give different running amounts.

Tornado Cash deposits are intended to break the direct on-chain link between depositors and later withdrawals, so the alert describes funds entering the mixer, not funds recovered or a proven destination after mixing.
