Failed hacker attack on Bitfinex with XRP

💻 Bitfinex was the target of a sophisticated hacker attack. The attackers faked a transfer of almost 15 billion US dollars in XRP.

😂 That would have amounted to about 50% of the total XRP market capitalization.

🛑 Bitfinex CTO Paolo Ardoino reported on Platform X that the “Partial Payments Exploit” attempt was thwarted.

Although at first glance a huge sum seemed to be transferred, the actual amount was only a few cents.
