ZKsync’s Official X Account Falls Victim to Hackers Pushing Scam Airdrop

Another day, another crypto security breach—this time targeting ZKsync’s verified X account. Hackers hijacked the platform to promote a fraudulent token distribution, preying on the airdrop-hungry masses.

Security fail: The attackers bypassed safeguards (or what passed for them) to push a classic ’too-good-to-be-true’ scheme. Investors who fell for it are now left holding worthless digital IOUs—just in time for the next bull run.

Wake-up call: If a Layer 2 leader can’t protect its social media, maybe your ’DYOR’ should start with checking if that giveaway tweet came from an actual employee... or a 17-year-old with a phishing kit.

Despite the hack, there has been no significant immediate impact on the ZK token price, yet. However, further fallout could still materialize if user trust erodes.

Security experts warn users to remain cautious and avoid interacting with any unverified links related to token distributions.

This incident highlights the growing frequency of social media breaches targeting major crypto projects.

This is a developing story.
