0xsun “was hacked” this time. The most unusual part is that the hacker went straight to places to place trades using the money in his wallet, with zero run-and-cashout.
A computer master’s degree holder and a seasoned crypto veteran—by all logic, he shouldn’t have fallen for such an old-school trick as email phishing.
What does the hacker want? They want money. But this time, the person who obtained the private key didn’t drain the funds for a cashout. Instead, they helped get a new coin listed.
There were already people saying he got liquidated on U.S. stocks and would find a way to come back to the crypto market to recover it. Put these two things side by side, and the coincidences are a bit too many.
With a hole of nearly 500,000 U, no one has yet made it clear what the hacker is really after. Yet this coin is listed first. $ETH
