According to BlockBeats, on October 6, THORSwap, a cross-chain DEX aggregator based on THORChain, announced on its social platform that in view of the fact that illegal funds are using THORChain and THORSwap, after careful evaluation of the situation and consultation with consultants, legal advisors and law enforcement agencies, the team decided to temporarily switch the protocol to maintenance mode. This action was taken to quickly curb any further potential illegal activities. THORSwap will maintain this mode until a more durable and powerful solution can be implemented to ensure the continued security and integrity of the platform. Previous on-chain monitoring information showed that the FTX attacker address continued to exchange large amounts of ETH for BTC through the THORChain cross-chain.
