ZKSync's X (formerly Twitter) account appears to have been hacked. There is speculation that some of the posts made by ZKSync were the work of hackers.

According to Cointelegraph, a virtual asset (cryptocurrency) specialized media outlet, on the 13th (Korean time), ZKSync's official X account posted about an airdrop and a notice of investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) earlier that morning.

After these posts were made, an account known to be a ZKSync developer warned, "ZKSync's X account has been hacked," and advised, "Do not trust any of the posts that have been uploaded."

It seems that the X account has now been successfully recovered. ZKSync announced, "We are currently investigating the hacking incident, and all posts made by the hacker have been deleted."
