The official Discord channels of blockchain platforms Avalanche and ZKsync was compromised. Users advised to not click on unknown links.
Less than 48 hours after blockchain platform Polygon’s Discord was compromised, layer-1 network Avalanche and layer-2 blockchain ZKsync’s official Discord servers were also compromised by hackers.
The hacking of blockchain platform Avalanche’s servers was confirmed on August 25 after the platform took to its X account to warn users about not engaging with any message or link shared over its discord server.
Some members of Avalanche’s discord family also shared images on X showing that the hackers set up many fake “distribution” schemes that would trick them into thinking that they could get free Avalanche (AVAX) tokens.
