[Crypto World] Someone has leaked that the market maker account of a major exchange may have been hacked. Even more upsetting, it seems the attacker is using this account to dump money—estimated to have diverted between $10 million and $20 million to manipulate the market. The target is a certain trading pair in the spot market, with the price artificially driven up. As of now, the exchange has not issued an official statement, and the details are still being verified. It is important to note that automatic matching of token information may have issues, so all investors must stay vigilant, as these types of incidents carry significant risks.

【币界】有人爆料，某头部交易所的做市商账户可能遭受了黑客入侵。更扎心的是，攻击者似乎在用这个账户砸钱——估计有1000万到2000万美元的资金被挪用来拉盘。目标指向现货市场的某个交易对，价格被人为推高。截至现在，交易所方面还没有正式声明，具体情况仍在确认中。需要注意的是，代币信息的自动匹配可能存在问题，所以各位投资者一定要提高警惕，这类事件风险很大。

It's really outrageous that market makers got hacked, and millions of dollars just disappeared?

Tens of millions of dollars being misappropriated to manipulate the market—how much would it need to be pumped to absorb such a large order... It has proven that the security architecture of exchange wallets indeed has vulnerabilities.

It's the same trick again, market maker accounts get hacked and manipulated, I don't believe you. Is this the security level of top-tier exchanges? Just a few million dollars and it's gone? Wait, could it be that they did it themselves, just blaming the hackers anyway.

Tens of millions stolen? Is this exchange really about to have a major incident... But manipulating the market like this is truly outrageous. Just waiting for an official statement.

Another one? These days, hackers are more active than market makers.
