Earlier reports stated that blockchain detective ZachXBT posted on social media earlier today that he had detected that Ripple had allegedly been hacked and 213 million XRP (approximately 112 million US dollars) had been stolen. The stolen funds have been laundered through MEXC, Gate, Binance, Kraken, OKX, HTX, HitBTC, and other platforms.
