Pokémon’s X Account Hijacked to Shill a $POKEMON Memecoin
The official X account for Pokémon was compromised for approximately 30 minutes, during which it promoted a memecoin called $POKEMON, generating over $3 million in transactions. The hackers leveraged the account's 8 million followers and framed the scam around Pokémon's 30th anniversary. This incident follows a trend of social media accounts being targeted to promote cryptocurrencies, similar to recent Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks.
