Ethereum wallet from 2015 launch moves $4.6 million, dodging lookalike-address scam
Bots flagged the wallet within minutes and planted lookalike addresses in its history, but the owner still sent the funds to the intended destination.
Das Wichtigste
- A wallet dating from Ethereum's 2015 launch moved $4.6 million, CoinDesk reported.
- Bots spotted the wallet's activity immediately and planted lookalike addresses in its transaction history.
- The owner sent the funds to the intended address anyway, according to CoinDesk.
- CoinDesk did not name the asset moved, the wallet's owner or the exact date of the transfer.
The transfer
A wallet that dates from Ethereum's 2015 launch moved $4.6 million, according to a CoinDesk report published on 10 November 2026. The wallet had been inactive for about 11 years before the transfer, the report said.
Automated bots noticed the wallet as soon as it became active, CoinDesk reported. Within minutes they planted lookalike addresses in the wallet's transaction history, written to resemble the destination the owner meant to use.
The owner sent the funds to the intended address anyway, according to the report.
What the report does not say
CoinDesk did not identify the asset that was moved, the wallet's owner or the addresses involved. It also did not give the exact date of the transfer.
The report did not say who ran the bots, whether they are tied to a known group, or whether the incident was reported to any authority. It described the outcome as the owner avoiding the trap, not as a loss of funds.
Lookalike-address schemes generally depend on a user copying an address out of transaction history without checking it in full. The report did not say how the owner verified the destination.
