Blockchain security firm PeckShield has reported a significant movement of funds by the hacker responsible for the Radiant Capital (RDNT) exploit last year. A staggering 5411 ETH, valued at approximately $20.7 million, has been transferred to Tornado Cash, a cryptocurrency mixing service often used to obscure the origin and destination of crypto transactions. This incident follows a previous hack in October, where Radiant Capital suffered a $53 million loss. The movement of these funds to Tornado Cash raises concerns about the hacker's intentions and the potential for further illicit activities. Law enforcement and security experts will likely be closely monitoring the situation to trace the funds and potentially identify the perpetrator. The use of Tornado Cash makes tracing these funds significantly more difficult, highlighting the ongoing challenges in combating cryptocurrency-related crime and securing DeFi platforms. ```
