Kotaku hacked by crypto rug-pullers, but for a second I thought G/O Media was even dumber than previously imagined
In a bizarre turn of events, Kotaku’s X/Twitter page today is filled with advertisements for a new crypto coin named after the site today in what seems like a social media hack, despite the brief possibility of it being another business decision from G/O Media.
The posts bear all the hallmarks of a hack. Essentially all of the account’s posts over the last several weeks have been link posts to stories on Kotaku’s website except for today’s, which started advertising a crypto coin before finally posting a link to said coin. Which… yeah, I’m not clicking on that on my computer. Best of luck to you if you did. The link is now down and off the X page, so don’t bother rooting around for it at this point. A post from Kotaku’s Ethan Gach confirmed the social media account was hacked.
