A hacker panic-sold 9,240 Ether during today’s market crash, resulting in a $4.56 million loss on the transaction. The perpetrator, believed to have illicitly obtained crypto assets through recent exploits, executed the large-scale sale amid broader market volatility affecting Ethereum and other digital assets.

Hackers linked to major exchange thefts have demonstrated reactive trading patterns during recent market downturns, with some observed rebuying Ethereum after initial panic sales during price dips.

These entities have repeatedly engaged in swing trading Ethereum, attempting to capitalize on price rebounds following exploit-related asset movements. The trading behavior highlights ongoing challenges as stolen funds continue circulating through decentralized markets.
