Over $3 Million Drained in Force Bridge Exploit on Nervos Network

Hackers exploited the bridge to siphon off various digital assets, including approximately 257,800 USDT, 539.09 ETH (valued at $1.35 million), 898,300 USDC, 60,400 DAI, and nearly 0.79 wrapped bitcoin—worth around $83,000 at the time of the attack.

Stolen Assets Laundered Through Tornado Cash

The stolen funds were quickly swapped into ETH and funneled through Tornado Cash, a mixing service commonly used to conceal blockchain transaction trails. This move complicates any potential recovery efforts and further obscures the identity of the attackers.
