Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
The hacker linked to the Mercado Bitcoin breach has swapped stolen tokens into roughly $10.55 million worth of ETH, according to Arkham, with the flagged entity now holding about $31.23 million in assets. A separate transaction routing about $650,000 through the Bridgers cross-chain service into BTC appears to have been intercepted. The conversion matters because it marks the stolen funds moving out of illiquid altcoin exposure into ETH, a more liquid asset that is easier to launder or stake. Watch the hacker-linked wallets for further swaps, cross-chain transfers and any movement toward exchanges or mixers.
