DeFi’s security woes continue as attackers compromise Curve Finance’s official X account—pumping a fraudulent token distribution to unsuspecting users.

Another day, another ’trustless’ platform proving you absolutely shouldn’t trust it. The hack follows a predictable playbook: hijack verified channels, exploit FOMO, and vanish with the loot while crypto Twitter plays whack-a-mole with scam reports.

Meanwhile, the real CRV token barely flinched—because at this point, even DeFi degens have scam fatigue.

It’s still unclear how the hacker managed to take over Curve’s X account. There’s been no official word yet on whether it was due to phishing, leaked credentials, or some other form of social engineering. As of now, it looks like the breach was limited to just the X account—other Curve platforms haven’t been affected.

Until Curve’s team confirms they’ve taken back control, it’s best to steer clear of anything posted from the @CurveFinance X account. Don’t click, don’t engage. If you’re looking for real updates, stick to their official website or verified Telegram channel.

It’s a sharp reminder that even the biggest names in crypto can get caught off guard. With scammy airdrops and fake rewards flooding timelines, a healthy dose of skepticism is your best defense. Always double-check before you click.
