Onchain Analysts Flag Justin Sun-Linked Wallet's 274 Million USDT Exit From Aave Minutes After rsETH Freeze
"A wallet linked to Justin Sun pulled 274 million USDT from Aave 21 minutes after the rsETH market was frozen. The withdrawal coincided with KelpDAO's 292 million exploit on April 18."
"The 274 million USDT withdrawal was completed between 19:12 and 19:17 UTC, a five-minute execution window analysts say suggests pre-positioned transactions or automated triggers."
"The rsETH market freeze was triggered by the KelpDAO exploit, in which an attacker drained approximately 292 million from the protocol via a Layerzero bridge vulnerability."
"In the 24 hours following the exploit, whales pulled more than 5.4 billion from Aave, pushing the protocol into a state of heightened scrutiny."
