Atomic Wallet, a decentralized wallet, has been compromised and users on Twitter have reported that their crypto portfolios have been completely lost. Atomic Wallet said on Twitter on June 3 that it has received a notification of the breach and is conducting an investigation and analysis of the situation. They will share details as more information becomes available.
Some users have commented that their funds have been removed from their digital wallet app. On-chain investigator ZachBTX, who is known for tracing stolen funds and supporting hacked projects, is participating in the investigation. The details of how the attack happened are unclear.
Atomic Wallet claims to have over 5 million users. While it is a decentralized wallet, meaning the user is responsible for the assets stored in the wallet, this breach is causing concern and creating insecurity among the user community.
Users on Twitter have reported that their funds on the Atomic Wallet app have been stolen in the past. “6 months ago I lost my BTC on Atomic. When I contacted them they just replied that I should protect my password, root phrase and the like… I told them I just used Atomic to trade and then moved the crypto out I said I wouldn’t use Atomic again And now, I’ve been proven right! “, wrote one user in response to the post.
