🚨 $BTC SHOCKING! 46,000 TSMC EMPLOYEES’ DATA SOLD FOR JUST 3 BITCOINS
TSMC, the giant that makes the world’s chips, confirmed today that hackers leaked the data of around 46,000 current and former employees and put it up for sale for just 3 BTC. To me, the serious issue isn’t the ransom price—it’s that the leak came through an external cloud provider: the link nobody was watching is the one that broke.
Look at the detail nobody is paying attention to:
→ 6.9 GB of data for sale: the leaked sample contains 499 records with 19 fields each, including ID numbers, bank accounts, addresses, and emergency contacts.
→ The hackers gave them a week: if nobody pays the 3 BTC (about $215,000), they’ll publish the entire database for free.
→ TSMC shares fell 1.55% on Thursday, and this isn’t the first time: in June 2023, LockBit demanded $70 million over an attack on a TSMC supplier.
Do you think TSMC will pay the 3 BTC or let them publish the data? 👇
