2026’Dé En Büyük Kişisel Kripto Hırsızlığı: Donanım Cüzdanı Sosyal Mengineering Saldırısını Anlamak

January 10, 2026, around 23:00 UTC, one victim experienced a loss of over 282 million dollars worth of LTC and BTC. This incident was recorded as the largest single theft linked to ZachXBT’s social engineering-focused hardware wallet scam and emerged as the biggest development of 2026.

The malicious actor attempted to cover his tracks by converting the stolen assets into Monero across multiple quick cryptocurrency exchanges. Additionally, Bitcoin was bridged through Thorchain to Ethereum, Ripple, and Litecoin, aiming to reduce inter-chain visibility. The incident initially caused a sudden surge in XMR’s price as LTC and BTC were directed to Monero.
