According to cryptocurrency security firm PeckShieldAlert, an address (0xd2e8...ca41) known to be used by Soulcast co-founder @sillytuna was attacked using an address pollution method, resulting in the theft of approximately $24 million worth of aEthUSDC. Currently, approximately $20 million worth of DAI, which was stolen by the attackers, is stored in two temporary wallets. The wallet addresses are 0xdCA9...c9C4 (approximately $10 million) and 0xd0c2...dd3e (approximately $10 million), respectively, and it appears that full-scale laundering through mixing has not yet occurred. PeckShieldAlert stated that the attackers have already started bridging a small amount of funds to the Arbitrum network, and that additional movements and laundering could occur, so monitoring related addresses is necessary. This incident is a type of address speculation attack that tricks wallet owners into sending funds to a "similar address" planted in advance by the attacker, highlighting the need for address verification by individual wallet users and project stakeholders.
