Approximately 13 EH/s of Bitcoin hashrate was hijacked and redirected to the OCEAN mining pool, according to hosting provider CoreX Hosting. The stolen hashpower was pointed toward attacker-controlled address bc1qphukp9rjfc4rcej7erpm9ae20xmtspw8pcddrr, with proceeds intended for the attacker's wallet.
The hijacked hashrate peaked at around 13 EH/s before dropping to approximately 100 PH/s, suggesting the attack has largely concluded. However, the malware or program used in the operation has not yet been disclosed publicly. On-chain data confirms the attacker's address has not received any payments so far.
