Summary

Transit Swap is a cross-chain DEX aggregator incubated by TokenPocket, supporting swaps across Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Tron, Solana, and other networks. On October 1–2, 2022, an attacker exploited an input validation vulnerability in the platform's swap contract, draining approximately $21–28.9 million in user funds across Ethereum and BNB Chain. The attacker subsequently returned roughly 70% of stolen assets after security firms identified the exploiter's IP address and email, though an estimated 30% of funds — including amounts routed through Tornado Cash — remain unrecovered.
