Hacks and data breaches happen on an almost weekly basis. Cryptocurrency exchange hacks are particularly damaging because they typically affect thousands of users and involve the loss of funds.
Unfortunately, the same is the case today as well, with the latest such development emerging from Japan.
Líquido Global (Official), ranked among the top 10 cryptocurrency exchanges based on daily traded spot volume with deep BTC/JPY liquidity, is trending now, but for all the wrong reasons.
Conforme um declaração oficial, the exchange was hacked and more than $80 million in digital assets moved off the platform. The exchange confirmed the security breach in a tweet that read,
Os seguintes ativos foram transferidos para os seguintes endereços de hackers (mais investigações em breve):
BTC: 1Fx1bhbCwp5LU2gHxfRNiSHi1QSHwZLf7q
ETH/EWT: 0x5578840aae68682a9779623fa9e8714802b59946
TRX: TSpcue3bDfZNTP1CutrRrDxRPeEvWhuXbp
XRP: rfapBqj7rUkGju7oHTwBwhEyXgwkEM4yby- Oficial líquido global (@Liquid_Global) 19 de agosto de 2021
Em um artigo do follow-up tweet, the exchange shared four blockchain addresses – in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron e XRP – directly related to the hacker.
Now, Liquid Global executives didn’t comment on the amount lost. However, based on the aforementioned addresses, more than 107 BTC (worth around $4.7 million), 9,000,000 TRX, 11,000,000 XRP, and around $69 million Equivalente há of ETH and ERC-20 tokens (14,537 ETH & ERC 2O tokens worth 7,039 ETH) were taken by the hacker.
At the time of writing, the exchange was yet to release a post-mortem report of the incident. The latest update from the platform revealed that,
“We are currently tracing the movement of the assets and working with other exchanges to freeze and recover funds.”
Needless to say, reactions were immediate and vocal. KuCoin CEO Johnny Lyu, for instance, acknowledged the incident on Twitter and commented,
Estamos cientes do #LiquidGlobal incidente de segurança, e os endereços do hacker foram adicionados à lista negra de #KuCoin. Espero que esteja tudo ok. 🙏 https://t.co/IasscGItZH
