🚨$351.6M confirmed lost in the Bitget breach 🚨 Merkle Science's monitoring saw this first, before it was public. Our monitoring caught large multi-chain outflows from Bitget hot and cold wallets, then rapid swapping of USDT, USDC, and XAUt across DEXs as the attacker moved to convert stolen funds. We've informed agencies and exchanges and are staying vigilant. Behavioral, predictive monitoring catches this. Watchlists don't.

🇸🇬 Merkle Meet Singapore. Tuesday, October 6 during Token2049. MAS vs. MiCA. Stablecoins reshaping APAC payments. RWA tokenization compliance. AML and crypto crime across Southeast Asia. Speakers from @Paxos, @Celo, @Bitpanda_global, @AlchemyPay, @tezos, and more. Register 👉 luma.com/pgh8dk05

$1.7M drained from a "retired" Notional Finance V1 contract that was still funded and unmonitored. Two transactions, three minutes apart. An unchecked integer overflow let a fabricated position sail through collateral checks. We traced the funds to Tornado Cash and found the attacker's gas came through NEAR's intents infrastructure, not the usual bridge-and-mixer route. Full breakdown 👉 merklescience.com/blog/hack-…
