Genesis experienced a significant cybersecurity incidence involving social engineering tactics which resulted in the transfer of 4,100 bitcoin, valued at $243 million, to a compromised wallet. The attackers, dubbed 'Anne Hathaway' and 'VersaceGod,' utilized a scam to override two-factor authentication and conducted the heist. This event not only caused substantial financial loss to Genesis and its creditors but also impacted the credibility and operational integrity of the firm. The loot was laundered through multiple exchanges, complicating recovery efforts.
