ZKsync and Matter Labs' official X account were hacked, and the Hacker spread false SEC investigation information.

CoinVoice recently learned that according to Cointelegraph, the official X account of the Ethereum layer 2 network ZKsync and its development company Matter Labs were hacked, and the attackers issued false statements that the platform is under investigation (SEC) the Securities and Exchange Commission. Matter Labs has confirmed that the information is false and has regained control of the account.

As a result, the platform token ZK briefly fell by 2% to $0.07158. This is the second security incident on the platform in four months, following a token theft incident worth approximately $5 million that occurred in April. Company investigations suggest that this intrusion may have been implemented through a vulnerability in the permissions of third-party entrusted accounts. Currently, the price of ZK has retraced by 6.4% from a 38.5% increase in the previous week.
