The hacker who stole $41 million from Binance has consolidated the stolen bitcoin into just seven addresses. Approximately 7,070 BTC was moved from Binance’s hot wallet in a single transaction on Tuesday consisting of 44 outputs  — 21 of which were Bech32 (Segwit) addresses and 99.97% of BTC was sent to the Segwit addresses.

The hacker has since consolidated BTC from 44 addresses to mere seven; six of which hold 1,060.6 BTC while one holds 707.1 BTC. The addresses can be viewed here:
