Hacker of Indian Crypto Exchange WazirX Is Almost Done Laundering $230M Stolen Funds

Tornado Cash allows crypto users to exchange tokens while masking wallet addresses on various blockchains. The service, by itself, is not nefarious but is commonly used by criminals to clean an online trail that could lead to the identity of those moving stolen funds. Alexey Pertsev, Tornado Cash developer, was found guilty of money laundering by a Dutch judge in May and sentenced to 64 months in prison.
