ZachXBT Flags Ongoing Wallet Exploit With Losses Exceeding $107,000

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT reported an ongoing exploit targeting numerous crypto wallets across various Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible blockchains, resulting in losses exceeding $107,000, with the total still increasing. The attacker is siphoning small amounts, typically under $2,000 per victim, a tactic designed to avoid automated alerts while maximizing collective profit. While the root cause remains unidentified, speculation points toward a recent MetaMask phishing email claiming a mandatory upgrade or a connection to the Trust Wallet browser extension incident from the previous week. Investigators are monitoring a suspicious address (0xAc2e5153170278e24667a580baEa056ad8Bf9bFB), though no official link between the current drains and the suspected causes has been confirmed. This incident underscores the persistent threat of individual wallet compromises, which accounted for 20% of crypto theft value in 2025.
