<p>The cryptocurrency exchange Poloniex, owned by Justin Sun, was subjected to a hack attack on November 10, resulting in the seizure of over $100 million in assets. Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, confirmed that the exchange had been hacked following the revelation of a potential hacking incident on accounts on the X platform. Justin Sun plans to compensate affected users and offer a “white hat reward” to the hacker.</p>
<p>According to COINOTAG, a Tron chain address transferred significant assets totaling more than $100 million in 357 transactions; among these assets are USDT, BTC, USDD, USDC, ETH, FLOKI, TUSD, and many others.</p>
<p>The crypto community accused Poloniex and Justin Sun of trying to conceal the hacking incident. After many users reported disabled wallets, Poloniex Customer Support made the following statement:</p>
<blockquote>
 <p>“Our wallet is disabled due to maintenance. We will update this matter when the wallet is re-enabled.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Later, Justin Sun confirmed the Poloniex hack incident to the crypto community. Additionally, he announced a 5% “white hat reward” to the hacker returning the stolen funds within 7 days. The exchange is considering legal action if the hacker does not coordinate.</p>
<h2 id="strong-hacker-used-trx-for-the-purchase-strong"><strong>Hacker used TRX for the purchase</strong></h2>
<p>According to Scopescan monitoring data, the hacker used TRX to buy USDC on Ethereum and USDT on the TRON chain. So far, the hacker has purchased a total of 206 million TRX (approximately $22.8 million). This should be the reason for the sudden rise in TRX. The TRX price increased by 8% within an hour and is currently trading at $0.10. The 24-hour low and high values are $0.097 and $0.11, respectively.</p>
