{"content":"🚨 Iranian Exchange hacked for $81M by ISRAEL-LINKED hackers!
Iran’s largest crypto exchange just suffered a massive $81M exploit. The attacker? A pro-Israel group calling itself Gonjeshke Darande. Here’s what went down:
- Hackers used vanity wallet addresses with blunt messages, like “TerroristsNoBiTEX”, to drain Nobitex’s hot wallets across multiple chains. So far, at least $81.7M has been siphoned off - $49M in one strike alone.
- Nobitex confirmed “unauthorized access” but says cold wallets are safe and losses will be covered by their insurance fund.
- Even wilder: the hacker group claims this was a political act, calling Nobitex a “sanctions evasion tool” for the Iranian regime. They’re threatening to release source code and internal docs in the next 24 hours.
Meanwhile, $55M in USDT might be recoverable if Tether acts fast. The rest? Scattered across burner wallets, gone for good unless frozen. This isn’t your usual hack. This is crypto warfare in real time. Stay alert. Stay safe. This war took a turn on the blockchain which is absolutely crazy! #IsraelIranConflict #Israel #Iran #Hacking #NoBITEX ","images":["https://d2kdcqywr8ua22.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025062025/06/18/8d49d736029646889d1527c2dba23289.png"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":[],"quotearticleid":0}
