Hackers Triggered a Pump of TRUMP Token
The X (Twitter) account of the well-known crypto news aggregator DB was hacked, leading to the spread of false information about the TRUMP meme token. The attackers posted a fake announcement claiming that the token would soon have “real value,” sparking a surge in market activity.
Following the post, TRUMP’s price skyrocketed by 20% as traders rushed to buy in, believing the news to be true. However, once the platform regained control and issued an official statement debunking the claim, the token’s value quickly corrected itself, returning to its previous level.
This incident once again highlights the vulnerability of social media to market manipulation and the risks of impulsive trading.
