Celsius may have lost 900 BTC ($50 million) to the Badger DAO hack

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I just came across <a href="https://twitter.com/BigTimeCali/status/1466556925127000065">this twitter thread</a> saying Celsius lost 900 BTC to the Badger DAO hack</p> <p>Recently Badger DAO (a defi protocol Celsius might have been using) <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/business/2021/12/02/badger-dao-protocol-suffers-10m-exploit/">was hacked and $120 million was stolen</a>. </p> <p>The hackers managed to gain access to the website and add a malicious script that drained funds from users' wallets. </p> <p>The user who lost the most money to the hack was <a href="https://etherscan.io/address/0x53461e4fddcc1385f1256ae24ce3505be664f249">this address</a> (0x534) who <a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0x951babdddbfbbba81bbbb7991a959d9815e80cc5d9418d10e692f41541029869">lost 896 wBTC</a>. It is believed that this address is owned by Celsius since it has interacted with other addresses known to be owned by them. </p> <p><strong>Here's why it's believed that that address was owned by Celsius.</strong> </p> <p>TLDR: 0x534 (the address who lost 896 BTC) seems to be connected to a lot of addresses connected to Celsius. </p> <p>0x534 regularly sends big amounts of funds to another address (0xdb3). You can see a transaction like that here, where <a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0xa5b0773a30e2f8508d509a725bdfcd9dfd3fb7e5f38cb61a025a73afaf9251c3">0x534 sent 125 ETH</a> to 0xdb3. It also received funds from 0xdb3 frequently, </p> <p>0xdb3 has a $67 million balance, of which $40 million is in CEL </p> <p>0xdb3 is also related to another address (0x4f6) that's owned by Celsius (tagged as Celsius Network Wallet 5 on Etherscan). </p> <p>These two addresses interact with each other frequently, you can see 0xdb3 and 0x476 sending large amounts of funds to each other repeatedly. (<a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0xe7e247ee673de1c9c68a9d8ea00def54590928531a0617b10e3c01df7d2cfc92">0xdb3 sends 514k BUSD to 0x4f6</a> , <a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0xffee616069332435362e094c40a31617654af1c127fcfb2d5e7962fb227046b4">0x4f6 sends 6 million USDT to 0xdb3</a>)</p> <p><a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0x67b8acc614e852eadaa0cb5bbe9f69ba936649fd9097e2531870d416d73025c6">0x534 also sends funds to another address (0xef2).</a></p> <p>0xef2 is also related 0x4f6 (Celsius Wallet 5) . You can see 0xef2 frequently receiving funds from 0x4f6. (<a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0x9b1868021e2a518f8065bcff14bfa1923cbfd43303f87d4dc41b92cf4cef55b3">0x4f6 sends 6 million USDT to 0xed2</a>)</p> <p>0x534 also interacts with another address (0x5fa) (<a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0x6a810665b40d479133a8f71236df07238c2dc35801b151086ff6552b48944cb7">0x534 sends $2.2 million in CRV to 0x5fa</a>) </p> <p>And 0x5fa also interacts with 0xdb3 and 0xef2 (<a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0x5a8ec71b08c659dff8c2c4a450ed21bd516d5149dd3e870f3e7fa542257d3db9">0x5fa sends $50k in CRV to 0xdb3</a>, <a href="https://etherscan.io/tx/0x6d6c6b36dafe04a166de47deb8bf3900f94530cdcdd3e1d06847a47dd6970f9f">0xef2 sends $700 in ANKR to 0x5fa</a>) </p> <p>&#x200B;</p> <p>All this means that there's a high chance that the address who lost 900 BTC was owned by Celsius. Celsius has not confirmed anything yet, so <strong>this is all speculation for now, so we don't know for sure if Celsius was affected or not.</strong></p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/AutisticDalekOnSpeed"> /u/AutisticDalekOnSpeed </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/r7py19/celsius_may_have_lost_900_btc_50_million_to_the/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/r7py19/celsius_may_have_lost_900_btc_50_million_to_the/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
