23-6-2025 – Binance’s former chief, CZ, took to X to spotlight a disturbing trend of cyberattacks targeting key information platforms. Hot on the heels of a breach at CoinMarketCap (CMC), the crypto data aggregator CoinTelegraph (CT) has now fallen prey to hackers. CZ cautioned users to exercise vigilance when linking wallets to these sites, as malevolent actors increasingly set their sights on such hubs.
Preliminary analysis of blockchain transactions, as referenced by CZ, reveals the CMC hack affected 39 individuals, with collective losses amounting to $18,570. In a bid to restore confidence, authorities have pledged to fully reimburse all affected parties.
