Dormant Exploit-Linked Wallet Moves $2M in UNI, LINK, CRV, and YFI

  • The blockchain data reveals that the address sold around 226,961 UNI, accounting for around $1.36 million. 
  • The wallet has been associated with funds stolen at the time of the Indexed Finance exploit in 2021 and the KyberSwap exploit in 2023. 

An ETH address associated with past decentralised finance exploits shifted over $2 million worth of tokens after being inactive for around one year. As per Lookonchain data shared on X, the wallet named 0x3EBF sold a big portion of UNI, LINK, CRV, and YFI in only one activity. 

The blockchain data reveals that the address sold around 226,961 UNI, accounting for around $1.36 million. Along with this, 33,215 LINK, 845,806 CRV, and over 5 YFI were sold, having a worth of about $410,000, $328,000, and $17,500, respectively. 

The wallet has been associated with funds stolen at the time of the Indexed Finance exploit in 2021 and the KyberSwap exploit in 2023. Indexed Finance lost about $16.5 million after the index pools got exploited via flash loans and pricing distortions. 

After the attack, the attackers claimed that trades were valid under smart contract rules. In November 2023, KyberSwap was attacked, and its Elastic liquidity pools were withdrawn for around $49 million over various chains. 

The Increased Fraudulent Activity in 2025

The attacker identified a defect in the calculations of liquidity positions which permitted repeated extraction of funds and further exploited it. After this event, the attacker also tried to force the protocol by asking for control in exchange for giving part of the stolen assets. 

The authorities of the United States uncoiled a charge in February this year, where a 22-year-old Canadian, Andean Medjedovic, was accused of accomplishing both attacks. He was also alleged to have laundered funds via mixers and cross-chain bridges and attempted to pressure KyberSwap’s team after the attack. 

This year marked an increased activity of crypto-associated thefts. As per the data shared by Chainalysis, the total losses estimated this year lie somewhere between $2.7 billion and $3.4 billion. 

The major portion of losses was associated with centralised platforms, contrasting with previous cycles where DeFi exploits dominated. More than $2 billion in thefts, and around 60% of the total had links to North Korea. 

The incident that shook everyone’s head was the Bybit hack in February. After that a series of hacks followed, including Cetus DEX and Balancer. However, individual wallet attacks accelerated keenly and stood at around 158,000 incidents.

Dogecoin Rally Sparks Meme Coin Frenzy

Dogecoin Rally Sparks Meme Coin Frenzy

The post Dogecoin Rally Sparks Meme Coin Frenzy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The crypto market is once again buzzing with excitement as meme coins prepare for what could be another explosive rally. Meme coin market capitalization rose 7% in the past 24 hours, with trading volume up 50%, according to CoinMarketCap, as both whales and retail traders return. This surge of momentum has many calling it the beginning of a new “meme season.” Historically, when liquidity floods into meme coins, the strongest projects have delivered outsized gains. Today, one project in particular is drawing attention: Maxi Doge. Source – Crypto ZEUS YouTube Channel The Doge Narrative Remains Strong Much of the current excitement stems from Dogecoin’s performance. With a spot ETF under consideration, $DOGE has rallied roughly 34% and is approaching positive territory for the year. Technically, Dogecoin has been trending upward since late 2023, and maintaining levels above $0.29-$0.30 could pave the way to $0.35. In a strong bull market, even $2 remains possible. This momentum highlights why tokens associated with the Doge brand carry significant cultural and market influence. Projects such as Shiba Inu, Floki, Dogwifhat, Bonk, and Mog Coin have historically been first movers when meme coin cycles return, a trend also reflected in the recent price movements reported on CoinMarketCap. That is why traders are closely watching Maxi Doge, which brands itself as “Doge on steroids” with the goal of amplifying the meme coin narrative. Maxi Doge Presale Hints at 10x to 15x Growth Potential The presale for Maxi Doge is proving successful, having already raised over $2.3 million of its $2.5 million target. Once this phase ends, token prices reset higher, giving early participants an immediate advantage. This presale structure mirrors other meme coins that later performed strongly once listed. If Maxi Doge enters exchanges reflecting its roughly $2 million presale raise and follows the trajectory of…
