Wu Shuo learned from a disclosure by ZachXBT that an early whale address belonging to the Solana genesis block allocation was stolen a few hours ago, with losses reaching 180.9k SOL (about $14.2 million). The investigation shows that the whale address recently exhibited abnormal unbonding activity, and after gaining control, the hacker is transferring the funds from the Solana chain to the Ethereum network via a cross-chain bridge.

Cross-chain bridges are becoming money-laundering channels again—can the risk controls between different bridges communicate with each other?

Genesis blockchain addresses... even key management at this level can go wrong, ordinary people don’t stand a chance either.

14.2 million USD just disappeared, and the hacker even knew how to unlock the collateral first, then cross-chain and run—professional level to the max

Even early Solana whales could be stolen—can this security model really stand up to scrutiny?

So is it a private key leak after all, or is it a new vulnerability? Wait for ZachXBT’s full report.
