Recently, i know Binance CEO, Changpend Zhao has recently criticised the security of Twitter after the recent coordinated attack on prominent accounts. He has said this on the World Blockchain Summit Asia which took place on Thursday 16 July. This attack on Twitter has targeted several prominent crypto exchanges including Coinbase, Binance and many others. Along with this, it has attacked some of the most famous personalities of the U.S. Barack Obama, Bill Gates, Elon Musk and many others. The hackers were posting tweets from these accounts and have been offering a fake crypto giveaway.

What's your opinion?

Let's just accept the fact that anything on the internet is hackable. Any application or social media sites could be hackable so we should always expect the worst. The best thing is that twitter handled things well. It was unexpected on their part but they still did something to stop it. Hackers are smart but we should always be wiser and smarter than them. It might be hard to regain the user's trust for twitter again but the best thing that they can do is to tighten their security system.
Yes it does, but during the enhanced security technology? twitter security seemed to be weak if we compare it to others. So why would hackers choose twitter who only has 330 million user than facebook who got a 2.5 billion active user? if they want to scam a large quantity of population to gain a massive amount of money they could have done it with facebook but they did not, coz twitter has a shallow security compared to facebook that is centralized and has a data center, imagine having 30,000 servers that holds the whole data of facebook including your dog photo right now.
