According to CoinDesk on July 16, Neeraj Agrawal, director of communications at the Coin Center, said Bitcoin (or cryptocurrencies) was unaffected when Twitter was under attack. If the goal of a hacker is to make money, he has failed miserably. Only a small amount of $ 123,000 in Bitcoin passes through the listed wallets, some more likely to be returned by attackers. This situation highlights the importance of a malfunction, such as one person on a platform that can affect multiple accounts. “Some people with restricted access to the Twitter admin panel can cause a lot of damage because Twitter is the central server,” Agrawal said. Agrawal does not believe the case will affect the legal process with crypto.
