Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun made remarkable statements after HTX, for which he was a global consultant, was attacked.
According to the information shared by Web3 security company Cyvers, a shady wallet had withdrawn more than 1,000 Ethereum (ETH) from HTX’s hot wallet. Cyvers had detected a total of $100 million worth of suspicious transactions on HTX’s hot wallets and HECO Cross-chain.
We are detecting multiple suspicious transactions on @HTX_Global hot wallets and on @HECO_Chain bridge that were probably executed by the same entity, total value of $100M. https://t.co/Q5pOfdRTcz
