Bitget hacker’s laundering attempt via Chainflip is blocked

A hacker that attacked exchange Bitget’s hot wallet tried to launder stolen funds through cross-chain swap protocol Chainflip, but the attempt was blocked. According to on-chain tracking data, the deposit was immediately rejected at the Chainflip broker level. Chainflip did not directly freeze the stolen funds, but it refunded them to the original wallet after rejecting the deposit, thwarting the hacker’s attempt to move the assets.
