Mercado Bitcoin hack: 6.7 million XLM stolen in $40 million breach
AI summary
Brazil's largest crypto exchange, Mercado Bitcoin, disclosed the on-chain address holding 6.7 million stolen Stellar (XLM) tokens following a $40 million hack. The disclosure gives the public a way to track the stolen funds, but the breach is a major security and reputational blow to one of Latin America's biggest trading venues. Traders should watch for XLM selling pressure if the attacker moves the tokens and for wider exchange-security concerns in the region.
