XRP Wallets Continue to Drain as 640k+ Tokens Stolen in Ongoing Hack
The D'CENT App Wallet continues to drain funds from users, with a recent update showing that over 640,000 XRP have been stolen since September 21. This brings the total losses to around 12.4 million XRP across 7,393 wallets.
A notable detail is that 76 wallets were emptied, refilled, and emptied again, suggesting previously drained addresses were subsequently funded before being targeted again.
The incident has prompted a warning from xrpl.to: 'Never send XRP to an old App Wallet address.' D'CENT users are urged to update the app to the latest version and move their funds to a newly created secure wallet as soon as possible.
Users are also advised not to make any transactions through the App Wallet before updating, and should create a new recovery phrase for their hardware wallets if they have ever been entered or restored in the App Wallet.
