LastPass is a platform that stores and encrypts password information for users. Last year, its cloud storage service was hacked in an attack that included assaulting an employee and stealing his credentials.

ZachXBT and MetaMask developer Taylor Monahan tracked at least 80 crypto wallets that were compromised as a result of a hacker attack.

According to Monahan, funds were stolen from the Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, Arbitrum, Solana and Polygon blockchains.

Cryptocurrency wallets often become targets of hacker attacks, since obtaining a private key gives a hacker full access to funds. Recall that only in July of this year, as a result of a series of hacks and exploits, more than $300 million worth of funds were stolen from cryptocurrency users.
