Crypto platform Wormhole Portal was exploited by unidentified hacker(s) earlier this week. The attack cost the company Ether worth $322 million (roughly Rs. 2,410 crore). This is the second attack in two weeks where a blockchain bridge was breached by hackers.
Wormhole, a "decentralised finance" site that allows the transfer of information across crypto networks, said it had been "exploited" for 120,000 digital tokens connected to the second-largest cryptocurrency, ether.
Crypto.com was breached by hackers, leading to major loss of funds stored in Ether. While an investigation has been initiated in the case, CEO Kris Marszalek claims to have hardened its security infrastructure following the hack attack. Details on the type of hack remains unknown.
