We have disabled the domain, and we are investigating the situation, including how the hackers gained access to our legitimate domain.
Our preliminary review of the phishing email that was sent to our newsletter subscribers about an hour ago revealed that it is very likely that our newsletter provider has been compromised.
Several other Bitcoin companies were also targeted, and it appears that we all share the same newsletter provider.
We sent a phishing warning to all of our newsletter subscribers, contacted the provider, and reported the phishing domains. Most of the phishing links appear to have already been removed.
We are continuing to actively investigate this situation and will update you once we know more.
Hackers steal nearly US$320 million in bitcoin after attacking Liquid Network
Bloomberg — A blockchain linked to bitcoin, used by multiple cryptocurrency exchange platforms, has been the target of a cyberattack in which US$320 million was stolen, the latest in a series of thefts that have shaken confidence in the security of digital assets. Liquid Network, a company that develops a blockchain designed to speed up transactions, suffered the theft of approximately 4,000 of the 4,200 bitcoins it held in its Liquid Federation wallet, according to a post on X. According to the company, the authors are “alleged white-hat hackers” who take the funds after detecting vulnerabilities with the intention of returning them, often in exchange for a fee.
Today, 9.92 million tokens were unlocked from $HYPE (almost 1% of the total supply), worth about $820 million, sent directly to the original contributors.
This is a real liquidity stress test: if the market absorbs this supply without the price collapsing, it confirms real institutional demand; if it doesn't, it's the clearest sign that much of the recent rally was hot air.
In the next 48-72 hours, we'll see whether buying volume supports the price or whether the sell-off cascade begins from those who received free tokens today.
