#AiXBTSecurityBreach
On March 18, 2025, the AiXBT platform, a well-known artificial intelligence agent in the cryptocurrency field, suffered a security breach that resulted in the theft of 55.50 Ethereum, equivalent to approximately $104,000. The attacker was able to access the control panel of the independent AiXBT system and scheduled malicious responses that led to the transfer of funds from the platform's Simulacrum wallet.
The developer known as rxbt confirmed that the AiXBT platforms were not affected, and the breach was not the result of a flaw in the AI itself, as there were preventive measures in place. In response, AiXBT moved the servers, changed the keys, and temporarily suspended access to the control panel to implement security enhancements, in addition to reporting the hacker's address to exchanges to prevent further incidents.
This breach led to a 15.5% decrease in the value of the AiXBT token, as it dropped to $0.09 after the incident. This incident raised concerns about the security of AI-based systems in the cryptocurrency field, highlighting the need for stronger security measures to protect user assets and maintain trust in the ecosystem.
