High-Key Details

According to reports, a massive Twitter hacking started Wednesday afternoon with multiple high-profile celebrity accounts getting taken over. The online takeover is also connected to a huge bitcoin pitch.

The Twitter accounts of major companies and individuals have been compromised in one of the most widespread and confounding hacks the platform has ever seen, all in service of promoting a bitcoin scam that appears to be earning its creator quite a bit of money. We don’t know how it’s happened or even to what extent Twitter’s own systems may have been compromised. The hack is ongoing, with new tweets posting to verified accounts on a regular basis starting shortly after 4PM ET. (The Verge)

Before You Go

This week, reports emerged about Kanye West possibly bowing out of running for president. The huge speculation comes just weeks after Ye announced his intent to become the head of state.

Kanye West has reportedly withdrawn from the US presidential race, less than two weeks after announcing that he would run. A member of West’s campaign team, Steve Kramer, has reportedly told New York Magazine’s Intelligencer off-shot that the rapper will no longer contest the election. “He’s out,” Kramer told Intelligencer.
