tldr; The hacker behind a recent Coinbase breach used stolen funds to purchase 38,126 Solana (SOL) worth $7.9 million. The hacker converted DAI to USDC, bridged to the Solana network, and bought SOL at an average price of $208.7. This marks the third major asset move since the May breach, which affected 70,000 users through a social-engineering attack. Coinbase refused a $20 million ransom and pledged to reimburse customers, incurring remediation costs of up to $400 million. The hacker's actions align with bullish sentiment around Solana's price trajectory.
