As new hack incidents are added every day in the Crypto currency sector, the latest news came from Iran.

According to this, Iran, which is at war with Israel, experienced a major hacking incident.

Blockchain security expert ZachXBT stated that a hacker group targeted the Iranian exchange Nobitex and threatened a data leak.

ZachXBT reported that the Iranian crypto exchange Nobitex was hacked by the "Gonjeshke Darande" group.

The group took responsibility by accusing Nobitex of helping the Iranian regime finance terrorism and evade sanctions.

Group X stated, "We launched a cyber attack on Nobitex as 'Gonjeshke Darande'. These cyber attacks are a result of Nobitex being an important tool for the regime to finance terrorism and violate sanctions."

They threatened to release the exchange's internal data within 24 hours and warned users to withdraw their funds immediately.

While the hacker group stated that the remaining assets would be at risk, ZahXBT reported that more than 81.7 million dollars worth of crypto from Nobitex was stolen. Of this, 48.6 million dollars.

ZachXBT reported that the hacker group used the address "TKFuckiRGCTerroristsNoBiTEXy2r7mNX".

Nobitex confirmed that they detected unauthorized access in some of their hot wallets and that the wallets were immediately suspended.
