More North Korean-linked ETH Wallets are being sanctioned by the US Treasury after the $600 million Ronin hack.

US authorities are enforcing a broader set of penalties against putative North Korean cryptocurrency wallets. On Friday, three Ethereum domains were basically introduced to the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Asset Control or OFAC sanctions database. Among those three Ethereum, one address was actually named last week. The US authorities linked to the loss of about $610 million in cryptocurrency from Axie Infinity's Ronin bridge.

Over the previous week, all three accounts had received large incoming transactions. That money is basically looted ether (ETH) from the officially sanctioned wallet. North Korea's Lazarus hackers squad, according to the FBI as well as OFAC, has been diverting funds. They were transferring them from a permitted account to an intermediate address prior to actually transferring the cash to Tornado Cash. Tornado Cash is a mixer intended to conceal the destination address of monies transferred via the service. Companies

This money laundering process was even replicated on Friday. Money was again transferred from one of the recently sanctioned addresses to a third-party middleman before returning to Tornado Cash.

Tornado Cash has never personally communicated with any of the permitted addresses. Because of the architecture of Tornado Cash, the company's operators can't ban addresses. The OFAC mandates any entity dealing with the US banking system.

The mixer has included a compliance tool from Chainalysis. It is a blockchain intelligence business that allows it to ban specific addresses. However, only on the decentralised customer software that Tornado Cash's operators have control over. Individuals can still circumvent this certification tool by using the method itself. Furthermore, the Chainalysis program only revealed the initially approved address as of the previous week. "OFAC is the arbiter of what addresses have to be actually blocked," a Tornado Cash spokesperson initially told CoinDesk.

"So far, it's been a guessing game. It is presume OFAC has found just one address that should be basically authorised in connection with that occurrence. That is to say, Chainalysis modifies whatever is on the penalty list "explained the spokesperson. Facing all these captivating it has become important to have cryptocurrencies that are easy to track, projects like Polygon, Point Network, Theta, etc, are good examples which can be useful for facilitating multiple transactions which are easy to track.
