This is worrying. Could it be that digital finance needs to invest more in strategic security infrastructure? Don't be playing with my money mehn!😅😅

On June 18, 2025, Iran's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Nobitex, suffered a significant cyber attack in the early hours, with part of its hot wallet assets being plundered. A hacker group claiming to be 'Gonjeshke Darande' (predatory sparrow), widely believed to be linked to Israel, has boldly claimed responsibility for the incident on social media and threatened to leak the exchange's source code within 24 hours.

This is not only a 'Pearl Harbor' moment for Iran's crypto industry but also a dangerous signal: on the global chessboard of geopolitical conflict, crypto infrastructure is being used as a weapon for precise strikes, and the ripple effects may far exceed the survival of a single exchange.
