PeckShield identified the recipient as an attacker and said the funds had been converted into approximately 1,587.87 $ETH, valued at around $4.2 million, alongside about 31,500 $DAI. Its alert did not identify how the funds were accessed or establish whether customer balances were affected.
$ETH, Stablecoins and 12.398 Billion $SHIB Involved
According to PeckShield, the suspicious outflows included 836 $ETH worth approximately $2.23 million, 1.146 million $USDT, and 209 $BNB valued at $160,680.
The firm also listed approximately 96,805 $USDC, 12.398 billion $SHIB worth $70,170, and 31,515 $DAI.
The $4.3 million figure represents PeckShield’s aggregate estimate. The individual amounts listed account for approximately $3.74 million at the quoted valuations, assuming the stablecoins traded near $1. The alert did not explain the difference between those figures.
Ethereum records dated September 24 show several incoming transfers from a Duelbits-labeled address to a wallet beginning 0xA77e24 and ending 05aef76. These included 31,515 $DAI at 09:00:35 UTC, approximately 12.4 billion $SHIB at 09:00:59, 96,804.68 $USDC at 09:01:23, and 593,430.32 $USDT at 09:02:11. The explorer also identified Duelbits as the address’s initial funding source.
Funds Moved Through deBridge and Relay Addresses
Subsequent transactions show the recipient moving assets to addresses associated with cross-chain services.
At 09:27:35 UTC, the wallet transferred 96,804.68 $USDC to a deBridge-labeled address. A separate transaction at 09:31:23 moved approximately 6.4 billion $SHIB to the same labeled destination. Four later $SHIB transactions, ranging from 1 billion to 2 billion tokens each, brought the displayed outgoing $SHIB total to approximately 12.4 billion.
The records also show six transfers of 100,000 $USDT each to Relay: Router V3, followed by another transfer of 83,346.89 $USDT. Together, those seven transactions amounted to 683,346.89 $USDT.
Following the transactions, the Ethereum address’s recorded balance stood at approximately 1,587.876 $ETH, valued by Etherscan at $4,190,468.37. Its remaining token holdings consisted of 31,515 $DAI worth approximately $31,510.37, placing the combined $ETH and $DAI balance at roughly $4.22 million at that snapshot.
Duelbits Previously Suffered a Separate Wallet Exploit
Duelbits, which operates a cryptocurrency casino and sports betting platform, previously suffered an exploit on February 13, 2024. De.Fi’s incident report recorded losses of approximately $4.64 million and identified a loss of wallet access control as the apparent cause. Assets taken in that incident were also bridged and exchanged into $ETH.
That historical finding does not establish the cause of the September 24 outflows. PeckShield’s latest alert focused on the assets moved and their subsequent conversion, without specifying an attack method.
