A wallet linked to the Triple-A hack transferred 4,970 Ether (ETH) worth about $12.4 million into Tornado Cash, moving the funds through 56 deposits after consolidating them on Oct. 9.

The transfers consisted of 49 transactions carrying 100 ETH each and seven transactions carrying 10 ETH each. One of the fund flows also included an earlier withdrawal from a mixer.

The assets were moved across chains to Ethereum and converted before being divided between two intermediary wallets on Sept. 6. The funds were later gathered into a single wallet before the Tornado Cash deposits.

The July incident involved assets from Triple-A’s treasury, with the loss publicly estimated at about $11.8 million. Triple-A said the attack did not affect customer funds.
