Despite Ripple’s SEC Win, Bitrue’s X account May Have Been Compromised
In a shocking turn of events, cryptocurrency exchange Bitrue may have been hacked, according to reports. The exchange posted a fake news story claiming that SWIFT had partnered with Ripple to use its blockchain technology for cross-border transactions.
The news initially sent shockwaves through the crypto community, with many praising the potential implications for XRP’s price and adoption. However, it was later confirmed by the exchange that their X account had been compromised, and the post was not legitimate.
It is unclear whether whoever managed the Bitrue account had uncritically reposted the fake news story or if they intentionally disseminated misinformation. Regardless, this incident highlights the importance of verifying information before sharing it with others.
In a separate development, Ripple announced that it had won its lawsuit against the SEC, which could have significant implications for the future of XRP and other cryptocurrencies.
The price of the XRP token is down by nearly 2% over the past 24 hours.
