NEAR Protocol’s official X account was hijacked this morning, and the attacker is suspected to be hacker “Four Chan”
Odaily reported that the official NEAR Protocol account was hacked around 2:25 this morning, and the hacker posted a series of posts criticizing the Crypto ecosystem (some of the content has not been deleted yet). NEAR added that although the identity of the hacker is still unknown, there is reason to believe that this may have been done by the notorious hacker "Four Chan", but this is still just speculation. The security team led by security expert Mike Rotch thoroughly reviewed the incident and found that this was an isolated account hijacking incident, and no one attempted to phish the NEAR community through malicious links, contract addresses or other means.
