Tornado Cash Attacker Proposes Returning Governance With Dubious Motives to Lift Prices for Dumping

Tornado Cash Attacker Proposes Returning Governance With Dubious Motives to Lift Prices for Dumping

Tornado Cash community member Tornadosaurus-Hex stated in the forum that the Tornado Cash attacker has issued a new proposal to restore governance status and is "very likely to execute it."

In the proposal, he set his own TORN as "lockedBalance-s" and reset it to 0. If the proposal is passed, the malicious code integrated by the attacker into the protocol will be removed, and token holders will regain control of Tornado Cash's DAO governance rights.

The voting period for this proposal lasts until May 26. Community members are skeptical about the true intention of the attacker's actions. Although the proposal appears to return governance rights, it is possible that the attacker wants to use the optimistic atmosphere stimulated by the proposal to raise the token price and sell the held $TORN at the opportune time.
