I smell a false flag here.

Accounts with millions of followers , Obama, Biden, Gates, Musk, Bezos involved. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/bill-gates-elon-musk-twitter-accounts-hacked-nigerian-bitcoin-scam-over-53000-stolen

Who will be painted as the baddie here?

Yep you guessed it BITCOIN, criminals fleecing unsuspecting saps, it needs to be banned/brought under strict control will be the call all over the bought and paid for mainstream media

Nah, it was the platform that was hacked so I don't think that it will have a big impact on bitcoin. Besides, this is not the first time that we have seen bitcoin being used by criminals, so I don't think that the narrative behind this hacks will focus on bitcoin but more on Twitter itself. They are a social platform offering service to their customers, so where is the security?? And as I have in the other thread, there's a possibility that Twitter will be liable, specially that those involved are high profile accounts.

And Jack is a pro-bitcoiner.

Both twitter and bitcoin is on fire here, not just the other way around but the effect on bitcoin will be huge since this is the reason why there was a breaching in the first place to scam people using bitcoin. Now I'm thinking how many people are flagging bitcoin as false instrument for investment. I'm quite in doubt with the number of accounts that has been hacked, how did they do it? How about their 2FA authenticator?

What @theymos have concluded might just happened without authenticating the caller. twitter support Huh
