He shared the link to blockchain data supporting his claim. Apparently, the attackers initiated and executed a swap of BAD to Ethereum ETH $4 197 24h volatility: 0.4% Market cap: $506.35 B Vol. 24h: $32.28 B . Precisely, 2,057.39 BAD tokens were swapped for 3.2 ETH through the self-custodial wallet MetaMask.

By the timestamp, the transaction was executed at 02:36 (UTC) on Sept. 22, 2025. This transaction marks the offload of the last batch of BAD in their holdings.

The attackers wasted no time in transferring all 3.2 ETH to another wallet with the address 0x45b…0DF2a. Based on the ETH current price of $4,208.50, the transferred holding is worth about $13,467.

CoinMarketCap data shows that ETH market capitalization and 24-hour trading volume are at $508.37 billion and $39.62 billion, respectively.

Shibarium Bridge Falls Victim of an Attack

Backtrack to September 12, when the attackers carried out the exploit on Shibarium bridge, they made away with more than $4 million in crypto assets. This included Shiba Inu SHIB $0.000012 24h volatility: 1.2% Market cap: $7.21 B Vol. 24h: $246.72 M , ETH, ROAR, and the 2,057 BAD tokens. Since that time, the bad actors have been offloading the holdings gradually, according to the on-chain data.

In his personal foreword, top developer of Shiba Inu Kaal Dhairya, confirmed the transactions. Within the last few days, the same address that received the 3.2 ETH has liquidated most of its holdings. On Sept. 20, it offloaded 1.01 billion SHIB for 2.90 ETH, equivalent to $12,107, through MetaMask.

Meanwhile, the Shiba Inu team tried to control the extent of losses to the attacker by freezing 4,600,000 BONE on Sept. 13. From the investigation, it was gathered that the bad players behind the attack leveraged a flash loan to acquire the 4.6 million BONE. To achieve this exploit, they compromised validator signing keys, and this provided access and control over the protocol.
