An address that PeckShieldAlert tagged as linked to the X100 exploit deposited 821.2 Ether (ETH), valued at about $1.89 million, into Tornado Cash on Monday, two days after the protocol suffered a flash-loan governance attack.

X100 was attacked on Oct. 24, with losses estimated at about $4.75 million. The $1.89 million figure values the ETH sent to Tornado Cash; it is distinct from the estimate of total losses tied to the attack. The event timeline runs from the Oct. 24 attack to the Oct. 26 deposit, placing the transfer after the reported exploit.

X, X100's token, fell 96% over a 24-hour period. That decline is a separate measure of the incident's market impact, distinct from both the ETH transfer and the estimated attack losses. The deposit marks a later on-chain movement by an address identified as exploit-linked by PeckShieldAlert.
