Cybercriminals have struck a whale’s multisig wallet, resulting in a significant loss of funds. Blockchain security platform PeckShield reported on X that the attack led to the theft of $27.3 million from a single wallet.
The theft occurred in multiple stages. The compromised wallet had been created and funded only around 44 days prior to the attack.

According to PeckShield, the $27.3 million drain from the whale’s multisig wallet was due to a private key compromise.
The attacker has wasted no time in laundering the asset via a crypto mixer, with only about $2 million remaining in liquid assets.
