Has the Hacker the Crypto World Fears Returned? He Was in Jail, but Was Active in the Latest Attack

Blockchain analytics platform Arkham announced that an address believed to be linked to Avi Eisenberg, the attacker who profited approximately $110 million from the 2022 Mango Markets attack, has started showing on-chain activity again.

According to information shared by Arkham, the address in question is linked to a past attack that exploited a security vulnerability at Mango Markets, resulting in approximately $110 million in profits. Furthermore, it is known that Eisenberg threatened further actions against the Aave platform after the attack, and previously suffered losses in a liquidation process related to Curve Finance, subsequently receiving a prison sentence as a result of legal proceedings.

Recent on-chain data reveals that this address has signed transactions again. This development has increased concerns in the markets that the address may have become active again. However, based on the available data, it cannot be definitively confirmed whether the address is still directly under Avi Eisenberg’s control.
