🔍 SEC and Twitter (X) have announced an investigation into a fake tweet about Bitcoin ETF.

Yesterday evening, the official Twitter account of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was hacked, leading to the publication of a message claiming that Bitcoin ETF had finally received approval and permission for listing on all registered exchanges.

This initially caused a short-term surge in the price of Bitcoin to $48,000, followed by a sharp decline to $44,800, resulting in the liquidation of positions for numerous traders.

«The Securities and Exchange Commission will collaborate with law enforcement agencies and our government partners to investigate this incident and determine the appropriate next steps related to both unauthorized access and any associated unlawful activities»

- as stated in the official SEC statement.
