AAVE protocol bans Justin Sun’s account after tornado cash transaction.

August 13, 2022

TRON Co-founder Justin Sun’s AAVE account was blocked on Saturday.

Sun reported the incident through his Twitter handle today.

According to Sun, the account was blocked after someone randomly gifted him 0.1 Ethereum from Tornado Cash.

Justin also asked people to send Brain Armstrong, Paul Logan, Shaq and Jimmy Fallon but not to him.

He asked people to send them ETH since none of them actually uses defi application.

However, AAVE has not issued any statement in this regard yet.

Tornado Cash was allegedly used to launder $103.8 million, proceeds from Harmony Bridge and Nomad Token Bridge hacks.
