💰 A devastating $330M Bitcoin theft has shaken the crypto world — and the victim is an elderly U.S. citizen. 🇺🇸
According to #ZachXBT , the attacker used sophisticated social engineering to gain access to 3,520
$BTC , held since 2017. 🙀
The funds were laundered through over 300 wallets and 20+ exchanges, with large amounts quickly converted into Monero (
$XMR ), making recovery nearly impossible.
🔒 Experts say the operation showed rare coordination and automation.
📉 #Binance and others are cooperating with law enforcement, but legal and technical hurdles slow progress.
⚠️ This incident highlights the urgent need for cold storage, multisig wallets, and tighter personal security, especially for large crypto holders.
One of the largest thefts in crypto history — and it didn’t involve code, just clever manipulation. 🤷
