On Saturday evening, rapper Drake’s X account was reportedly hacked to advertise a fraudulent Solana-based memecoin referred to as “$ANITA,” impressed by his cartoon alter ego, Anita Max Wynn. The posts, falsely claiming a partnership with Stake, Drake’s crypto betting platform, reached over 39 million followers. The rip-off drove $5 million in buying and selling quantity earlier than customers realized its fraudulent nature. The posts have been later eliminated. This incident follows a string of high-profile X account hacks concentrating on celebrities like Cardi B and Doja Cat, used to advertise related crypto scams.
