馬來西亞前總理馬哈迪·穆罕默德（Mahathir Mohamad）的X帳戶被黑客入侵以促進加密貨幣

事實證明，2月5日，馬哈蒂爾的X（以前為Twitter）的帳戶顯然被黑客入侵。如今，被黑客入侵的社交媒體帳戶宣布了促進加密貨幣的工作。

Former Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has denied involvement in promoting a cryptocurrency after his X (formerly Twitter) account was apparently hacked on Feb. 5.

馬來西亞前總理馬哈迪·穆罕默德（Mahathir Mohamad）否認他的X（以前為Twitter）帳戶顯然在2月5日被黑客入侵後，否認參與了加密貨幣。

The hacked account posted a tweet promoting a Solana token called “$Malaysia”, falsely claiming that it was the country’s official cryptocurrency and a “significant milestone” in showcasing Malaysia’s strength.

該黑客帳戶發布了一條推文，宣傳了一個名為“馬來西亞”的索拉納令牌，錯誤地聲稱這是該國的官方加密貨幣和展示馬來西亞的實力的“重大里程碑”。

However, Malaysia does not have an official cryptocurrency.

但是，馬來西亞沒有正式的加密貨幣。

The tweet, which included a link to where the coin could be purchased, was accompanied by an image of the Malaysian flag.

該推文包括指向可以購買硬幣的鏈接，並附有馬來西亞國旗的圖像。

An aide to Mahathir confirmed to Free Malaysia Today and MalaysiaKini that the former prime minister’s X account had been “hacked” and that his team was working on recovering the account.

馬哈蒂爾（Mahathir）的一名助手今天向自由馬來西亞（Free Malaysia）和馬來西亞（Malaysiakini）證實，前總理的X帳戶已被“入侵”，他的團隊正在努力恢復該帳戶。

The hacked post was published at 8:15 pm on Feb. 5 and had been taken down by the time FMT published their article, over an hour later at 9:37 pm.

該黑客帖子於2月5日晚上8:15發布，並在一個小時後的下午9:37發表文章發表文章時被取消。

Some X users speculated that the coin was part of a “pump and dump” scheme, and the coin enjoyed a spike in value that made it look like the Merdeka 118, Malaysia’s tallest building.

一些X用戶推測硬幣是“泵和垃圾場”計劃的一部分，而硬幣的價值卻具有尖峰，使其看起來像馬來西亞最高建築物的梅爾德卡118。

Mahathir later posted at 9:57 pm, confirming that his X account had been hacked.

馬哈蒂爾（Mahathir）後來在晚上9:57發布，確認他的X帳戶已被黑客入侵。

This is not the first time that an official Malaysian account has been hacked to promote cryptocurrency.

這不是馬來西亞官方帳戶第一次被黑客入侵以促進加密貨幣。

The Rakyat Post reported in September 2024 that several X accounts had been hacked, including those of official Malaysian government bodies, such as the Employees Provident Fund and the Election Commission.

Rakyat Post在2024年9月報導說，已有幾個X帳戶被黑客入侵，包括馬來西亞官方政府機構的賬戶，例如僱員公積金和選舉委員會。

On that occasion, it was also a Solana coin that was being promoted, but the hackers openly admitted that they were not affiliated with the account owners, saying brazenly that “THIS IS A HACKED ACCOUNT” and even calling the coin “$Hacked”.

在那個時候，這也是被提升的索拉納硬幣，但黑客公開承認他們與帳戶所有者沒有隸屬關係，他大膽地說“這是一個被黑客的帳戶”，甚至稱硬幣為“ $ hacked”。

Mahathir for his part has previously denied that he uses any cryptocurrency.

馬哈蒂爾（Mahathir）以前否認他使用任何加密貨幣。

In 2021, Mahathir issued a statement that he would not encourage the use of cryptocurrency, referencing previous attempts to falsely claim that he was endorsing crypto coins.

2021年，馬哈蒂爾（Mahathir）發表聲明，他不會鼓勵使用加密貨幣，提到以前的嘗試錯誤地聲稱他認可加密貨幣。

“I have never and will not be involved in any get rich quick scheme”, he was quoted by the Malay Mail as saying.

“我從來沒有，也不會參與任何致富的快速計劃。”馬來郵政援引他的話說。

Instead, he only used fiat currency or physical money.

相反，他只使用法定貨幣或實物貨幣。

Followers of Mahathir’s policy would know that cryptocurrency is an unlikely avenue for the former PM.

馬哈蒂爾政策的追隨者知道，加密貨幣對於前總理來說是不太可能的途徑。

As opposed to embracing new forms of money, Mahathir once tried to propose a reversion to older forms of money.

馬哈蒂爾（Mahathir）曾經試圖對較舊的金錢進行回歸，而不是擁抱新的金錢。

In 2019, he proposed that East Asian countries adopt a new regional currency, one that was not tied to the U.S. dollar, but instead tied to a gold standard, a practice that has not been common since the middle of the 20th century.

在2019年，他提出，東亞國家採用一種新的區域貨幣，這種貨幣與美元無關，而是與黃金標準相關的，這種做法自20世紀中葉以來就一直沒有普遍。
