Cryptocurrency trading platform WOO X faced a major security breach in its history today. According to blockchain security monitoring firm Cyvers Alerts, over $12 million in assets were withdrawn from the platform as a result of suspicious transactions involving the Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Binance Coin (BNB) and Arbitrum (ARB) networks. “Our system has detected numerous suspicious transactions related to WOO X, resulting in losses exceeding $12 million in total across the BTC, ETH, BNB, and ARB networks,” Cyvers Alerts said on social media.
