Bankr’s deployer said the attack stemmed from a takeover of the project’s official X account, not a breach of Bankr’s infrastructure, and urged users to enable multi-factor authentication on Bankr accounts.
Bankr’s developer deployer said the project’s infrastructure was not breached and no Bankr vulnerability was exploited after attackers used the official X account to post a fake airdrop link. He said the incident was caused by a compromise of the social-media account, and that the team is awaiting a response from X. Users were advised to enable multi-factor authentication for their Bankr accounts, highlighting the recurring risk that hijacked social channels can be used to spread fraudulent links even when the core crypto platform itself has not been compromised.
