Three wallets emptied in about 69 seconds; SOL into Privacy Cash

08 Oct Grok window: Trenchbook tracing puts Solana, Base, and BNB Chain wallets emptied between 4:14:54 and 4:16:03 PM ET on 06 Oct, funded by one gas wallet on the EVM side.

6M) went into Privacy Cash in 10 deposits; about 362 ETH of bridge fills moved on Ethereum in 15 transfers. A sweep that fast across three chains points to keys or a live session held at once.

Some coverage calls a drained wallet a FOMO wallet; SlowMist separately warned about FOMO session phishing the same day. No source has linked the two. Vector still unconfirmed. No freeze or recovery.

06 Oct 2026: well-known trader @frogmanhaha confirmed about $4M taken from personal wallets.

Early coverage named large BP, MarsCoin, and Cash Cat balances sold into ETH, BNB, and SOL, then moved through privacy and cross-chain swap tools including Privacy Cash and Chainflip.

Vector unconfirmed: key, device, or session compromise all remain open. Research snapshot from Lookonchain, EmberCN, and related flashes.

369 take

Large personal bags on hot wallets and trading apps are still key-or-session risk. Size what you leave logged in for TOKEN2049-week travel the same way you size exchange float.

Prefer cold or hardware for what you are not actively trading.
