There is fear in the crypto community as users are warned not to engage in any link or address shared from the compromised account following a hacking incident on the Ava Labs COO’s X account.
It’s part of a concerning trend in crypto security breaches, and some point to insider actions at X. For instance, toward the end of May, crypto trader GCR reported his X account had been compromised via a bribe, which resulted in a fraudulent ORDI pump-and-dump scheme. Blockchain investigator ZachXBT later posited that the developers behind the Solana-based memecoin CAT might have been involved.
On another front, Frax Finance founder Sam Kazemian has alleged an insider at X was behind the hack of the project’s account that caused the loss of access to the protocol powering the FRAX USD-pegged decentralized stablecoin in early June.
Also, in June, Microsoft India’s X account, which is officially verified, was hacked to post Roaring Kitty videos with links to purchase fake GameStop GME cryptos. It could have been because of a SIM-swapping attack, whereby scammers profited from the weakness of two-factor authentication.
