In the latest development, security monitoring platform PeckShield reported that an attacker known as Penpie transferred 1,000 Ethereum (ETH) to the mixing service Tornado Cash in the past three hours.

These actions have once again raised concerns and discussions about money laundering activities within the cryptocurrency sector.
