While bets soar across online prediction markets, some Polymarket users may have seen their wallets thin — not because of losing predictions, but because hackers weaseled their way into their accounts.
The prediction market platform announced the breach on Thursday (June 25) via X, explaining that attackers had gained access to an undisclosed number of user accounts after compromising a third-party vendor. Hackers injected malicious script into Polymarket's frontend, which was spotted and contained by the platform, but not before the hackers siphoned funds from affected users.
