The Bloom attacker used 2152 different intermediary and destination addresses to move the funds
PANews October 28 reported that, according to Specter, the Bloom attacker stole nearly 1000000 USD in funds. The transfer patterns suggest that automated tools may have been used to repeatedly split, consolidate, and conduct cross-chain operations. The attacker used a total of 2,152 different intermediary and destination addresses, including 1,326 Solana addresses,EVM addresses, 822 Zcash addresses. The attacker also bridged the funds to Zcash, of which 5 26.099 coins ZEC have been transferred to the Sapling shielded pool.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
This means that the related funds were dispersed across numerous addresses and transferred between different blockchains; some of them ZEC entered a shielded pool, which may make the funds more difficult to track.
Why it matters to readers
The use of numerous addresses and cross-chain transfers makes tracking, freezing, and recovering the funds more complicated, and also indicates that the related assets may pose security and compliance risks.
For beginners, this can be understood as follows: the stolen funds were split into many portions and transferred to different networks and addresses to make tracking more difficult.
Risks and unknowns
The reported information comes primarily from Specter, and the related assessments have not yet been independently verified by the evidence.
“May have used automated tools” is speculation, not a confirmed fact.
The evidence does not state whether the stolen funds have been frozen or recovered, or whether the attacker’s identity has been confirmed.
