Analyst Yu Jin: Suspects Astra Nova theft, as fund flows do not match typical hacker behavior

ChainCatcher reported that individuals have expressed doubts about the claim that "Astra Nova (RVV) had its third-party managed account stolen." The hacker converted the stolen assets into USDT and transferred them directly to a CEX, which is unusual. USDT can be frozen, and transferring directly to a CEX may trigger risk controls; hackers generally do not operate this way.

Currently, a total of 860 million RVV (8.6% of the total supply) was transferred from the project's minting contract and sold on-chain, causing a sharp drop in RVV. The sale of 860 million RVV yielded 10.288 million USDT, of which 8.226 million USDT was transferred into CEXs, while another 2.041 million USDT remains in the on-chain wallet 0x643. Previously, Astra Nova stated that a third-party market-making account was compromised, allowing the attacker to control the assets and begin liquidation.
