Three months after one of the largest crypto thefts on record, blockchain data shows that almost half of the $1.4 billion stolen from Bybit has gone dark.

Data from cryptocurrency exchange Bybit reveals $644 million in stolen funds — nearly half of the exchange’s massive $1.4 billion theft — has vanished from public tracking after being processed through mixing services. Approximately $693 million (or 49.5%) remains traceable, while exchanges and authorities have frozen $63 million (4.5%), the data shows.

The stolen funds were systematically laundered through several mixing services. The largest portion — $247.5 million (around 966 BTC) — was laundered through Wasabi Wallet, while another $94.1 million laundered via eXch, a mixing service that publicly claimed to shut down in April but remains operational. Smaller amounts moved through Tornado Cash ($2.5 million in ETH) and Railgun ($1.7 million in ETH).
