Iran’s Nobitex Exchange Faces Renewed Threat After Hackers Leak Core Code
Iran’s Nobitex Exchange Faces Renewed Threat After Hackers Leak Core Code

Nobitex, the Iranian cryptocurrency exchange reeling from a $100 million hack, now confronts escalating risks as attackers publicly release its full source code. The breach, claimed by pro-Israel group Gonjeshke Darande, exposes sensitive infrastructure including cold wallet scripts and server configurations—effectively painting targets on remaining user assets.
The politically motivated attack targeted Nobitex’s alleged role in circumventing international sanctions. Hackers deliberately burned $90 million of stolen funds across eight wallets, signaling ideological motives beyond financial gain. Iranian authorities responded with exchange curfews as Nobitex struggles to restore services amid nationwide internet disruptions.
