December 14th was hacked American rapper Drake's account to promote the scam meme token Anita (ANITA) released online Solana (SUN).
A hacker who gained unauthorized access to Drake's account on the social network X, which is banned in Russia, posted a message on the artist's behalf about the Anita cryptocurrency, named after the singer's upcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand called The Anita Max Win Tour, which in gambling parlance means "I want the maximum win."

Drake's X account has over 39 million followers, so the attacker managed to attract a large audience and hit the jackpot. Within minutes of the ad being distributed, the Anita course took off 15 times, but then it collapsed just as sharply, and the coin almost completely depreciated by more than 99%. Judging by the trading volume of ANITA, which reached $4,9 million, the attacker pocketed several million dollars.
To make the point, the hacker pointed out that token Anita was created in collaboration with cryptocurrency betting platform Stake. Drake occasionally places sports bets on the platform and regularly suffers losses. For example, in June, he lost $500,000 in Bitcoin betting on the Dallas Mavericks to win the NBA Finals. The team suffered the Drake curse and lost to the Boston Celtics.
