Bybit laundering brought THORChain $2.91B in trading volume and $3M in fee income

Bybit’s illicit funds laundering has earned THORChain almost $3 billion in trading volume and $3 million in fee revenue. THORChain ( RUNE ), a cross-chain swap protocol, saw a massive surge in activity as the Bybit ’s hacker laundered funds through its platform.
