CoinMeta data: According to bitcoin.com, the payment address involved in the $459,000 theft incident at tradewiz is linked to a wallet that previously completed 27 transactions through this trading bot. The investigation revealed that on September 30th, the incident affected 20,933 wallets, with losses involving SOL, tokens, and deposits retrieved after closing the token accounts, valued at $120 per SOL. bitquery found that 41 minutes after the initial fund transfer began, tradewiz trading activities stopped, and approximately 73% of the funds were transferred away thereafter. tradewiz stated that the incident was due to the leakage of private keys related to the SOL PVP export function and promised to compensate users for their losses. The first batch of refunds has been issued, although claims need to be verified. tradewiz also suspended EVM services for security checks and mentioned that the police are assisting in tracking the assets. They have contacted the exchanges for identity and account verification information. bitquery traced some of the initial funds to withdrawals from MEXC, which were later directed to KuCoin deposit addresses. These connections do not indicate that either exchange was involved in the theft.
