−0.1%CoinDCX disputes on-chain claims over suspected $16 million incident
Image: ProtosOn-chain claims have challenged CoinDCX's explanation of a suspected $16 million incident. Analysts said about 15.819 million USDT moved to a TRON wallet from CoinDCX-linked addresses. CoinDCX said the addresses were linked to its July 2025 hack and that current wallets remain secure. The exchange said no user funds were lost. Investigators disputed that account, and the allegations remain unresolved. The transactions alone do not establish a new hack.
Key points
- On-chain claims challenged CoinDCX's explanation of a suspected $16 million incident.
- CoinDCX said the addresses were linked to its July 2025 hack.
- Investigators disputed CoinDCX's account, and the allegations remain unresolved.
Why it matters
The dispute centers on whether the transfers are tied to a past CoinDCX hack or a new compromise. CoinDCX says user funds were not lost, while investigators dispute its account.
What's unclear
CoinDCX says the addresses were not used after July 2025, while investigators point to later gas distribution and other activity.
It remains unresolved whether the $16 million transfers are a new hack or movement from previously compromised addresses.
