According to some cryptoanalysts, Ethereum was trapped against the background of the continuing drama of FTX-Lameda, since the collapse of FTX and the theft of crypto acttures for more than $ 600 million led to a deficit in the circulation of cryptocurrencies. The attacker, who hacked FTX, transferred millions of dollars to Ethereum to the account called FTX Account Drainer and slowly sells everything stolen, which can cause a drop in the price of Ethereum.
It is worth noting that the hacker was on the Ethereum Kitov list from coincarp for 37th place. Now it is in the same list with a deposit contract of Beacon Chain, many exchanges, second-level protocols and Defi-mines. Its share is 0.17%. In the hands of an attacker about $ 300 million in Ethereum, so his decision to sell all funds can lead to a large -scale collapse of prices in crypto.
Already started reporting that the hacker began to transfer Ethereum into other cryptocurrencies – the attacker exchanged 30,990 ETH for 2197.5 Renbtc, and transferred 1070 BTC to the Bitcoin network. CyberPressor translates RenbTC into BTC, regardless of the depth of the market and the prize, which is why the BTC bonus reaches 10%when buying. In addition, 50 thousand ETH (about $ 60 million) to the address starting with ‘0x866e’ were sent from the FTX Account Drainer. From him, a hacker can start cashing the stolen.

At present, the attacker has more than 100 thousand ETH, and the sale of cryptocurrency can greatly bring down its price and cause a long bear trend. Because of this, some cryptoanalysts believe that if the hacker decides to cash out all the stolen, this will force other traders to leave the market and lead with the coldest cryptosima in 2022.
