Illustration: 20,933 TradeWiz Wallets Paid $459,000 for a Leaked Key

Leaked private keys emptied 20,933 TradeWiz wallets on Solana of about $459,000[1].

Bitquery reported one link between the app and the drain: the wallet that took the money had traded through TradeWiz a month before[2]. That wallet was not a stranger to the product.

Twenty thousand wallets is not twenty thousand hacks. It is one leak, billed 20,933 times, and the count is the receipt[1].

What to do: nothing to revoke — Bitquery reports the funds left through leaked private keys, not a signed approval[1].

Who gains, who loses

Leaked private keys 20,933 TradeWiz holders on Solana lost about $459,000, and no approval is named for anyone to revoke.
The taker's earlier trade through TradeWiz per Bitquery, the link runs from the app's own user path to the drain, so the loss sits with the app's key custody.
