Cryptocurrency exchange WazirX was recently hacked, with over $230 million in crypto assets stolen, including a massive amount of Shiba Inu (SHIB). This incident has shaken the crypto community, especially SHIB holders who had their funds on the exchange.
A Message of Support
Lucie, a member of the Shiba Inu team, expressed her concern for the affected SHIB holders. She acknowledged the significant amount of SHIB stolen but emphasized that it’s a small fraction of the total SHIB in circulation.
“I sincerely hope all SHIB holders get their money back and WazirX fixes this,” Lucie stated. She urged the SHIB community to stay strong and see this as an opportunity to come together and support each other.
The Need for Stronger Security
The WazirX hack highlights the growing threat of cyberattacks in the crypto space. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of robust security measures for crypto exchanges to protect user funds.
The Shiba Inu team, along with other members of the crypto community, are calling for enhanced security protocols to prevent future attacks and restore confidence in the digital asset industry.
