Bybit Hack Now Has More ETH Than Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum Foundation
The hacker who hacked Bybit withdrew approximately 401,346 ETH, which was worth about $1.4 billion at the time of the hack. Compared to other known ETH holders, he has a lot of coins, currently holding about 200,000 in the Ethereum Foundation, which is half the amount held by the Bybit hacker. As for Vitalik Buterin, his personal ETH holdings are not fully disclosed, but it is known that he has about 244,000 ETH in his main wallet (e.g. "VB 3"), plus additional amounts in other addresses that could be closer to 270,000-300,000 ETH. Even taking this into account, the Bybit hacker surpasses him in terms of volume.
If you look at the top 100 Ethereum holders (e.g. via Etherscan or other blockchain analytics), the 401,346 ETH hacker ranks 14th among the largest wallets. The incident has already shaken the market, sending Ethereum to $2,600 and BTC to $95,500.
