#hype Oh, a classic: the crypto platform Hyperliquid unexpectedly faced a "small" panic in the market. Rumors that North Korean hackers could somehow get to the platform's validators immediately caused a mass withdrawal of funds. The result is minus $249 million in the total volume of blocked assets. Well, it happens.
The developers rushed to reassure everyone: there was no hacking, the funds were safe. However, users apparently did not believe it much, because the withdrawals continued, and the HYPE token first fell in price, and then for some reason decided to rise a little. Apparently, panic is also a trading tool.
It's funny that just a month ago the platform held a successful airdrop, and things seemed to be going well. But rumors about hackers, as it turns out, can destroy any idyll in the blink of an eye.
And, of course, it is impossible not to mention that North Korean hackers have already managed to steal cryptocurrencies worth huge amounts this year. But, of course, the current case is just a coincidence. Everything is stable, everything is calm, just another ordinary day in the world of cryptocurrencies.
