Hackers targeted influencer and celebrity X accounts over the weekend, promoting various cryptocurrencies like Luna2 and ORDI, and even launching new memecoins like "RICH" and "JENNER."

Concerns are rising about a wider attack, especially with memecoin creators launching projects during a long weekend when social media platforms might have fewer engineers on hand.

Caitlyn Jenner's involvement in promoting "JENNER" with a video sparked debate about deepfakes, but videos with Jenner and her manager suggest it's real.

Beware of these cryto hacks!!
