Digital asset exchange Bitget may have suffered a wallet compromise after analysts identified unusual cross-chain transfers and an outsized purchase of Ether.
Think @bitget hot wallet might’ve just been hacked for 20M?
something hella fishy happening on @arbitrum
Fresh wallet 0xe410…d946 just bought 7,111 ETH on Arbitrum in 6 min with 19.67M USDT0 (from a Bitget hot wallet), via UniswapX + 1inch Fusion, paying up to +5% over spot…

The transfers took place Thursday afternoon and appeared to involve three hot wallets and one cold wallet belonging to the crypto exchange, according to DCF GOD, a pseudonymous crypto influencer, angel investor and market analyst.
More than $180 million worth of assets were reportedly withdrawn and swapped for ETH at the time of publication, the analyst said.
The scope of the incident, attack method and potential losses have not been confirmed, and Bitget has yet to comment on the suspected hack.
