4,000 XRP wallets drained; ex-Ripple developers say warning signs existed
A large-scale hack in the XRP Ledger ecosystem drained thousands of mobile wallets at XRP Healthcare, affecting about 4,000 wallets. Attackers siphoned funds for about 3 hours, stealing 267,000 XRP and millions of related tokens and moving them to the Ethereum network. The breach was blamed on a critical flaw linked to a staking feature. Former Ripple developers and security experts cited previously documented risks, while the project team criticized their response.
