XRP Tops List of Cryptos Stolen in $157M Bitget Hack

XRP became the top target in a recent hacking incident at Bitget Exchange, where attackers stole $157.4 million worth of XRP tokens from one of the exchange's hot wallets on September 25.

This is not the first time Bitget has been targeted by hackers, and while the exchange assured users that their funds are safe, the loss falls within its User Protection Fund, which currently holds over $464 million.

The incident did not seem to have a significant impact on XRP's price performance, as it remained bullish despite the hack. In fact, the token's price surged over 16% during the last seven days, trading at $1.56.
