Kylian Mbappe's X Account Hacked, Insults and Crypto Scam Surface

Kylian Mbappé's X (formerly Twitter) account was hacked, leading to a series of controversial posts that quickly gained widespread attention. The hacked account promoted a cryptocurrency named '$MBAPPE,' claimed to have reached 90,000 sales, and included provocative messages about Manchester United and the rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. The posts were eventually deleted, raising concerns among the football community about the security of celebrity social media accounts.

The hack also involved misleading followers into investing in the '$MBAPPE' token, which experienced a rapid surge in value before crashing. The incident follows a pattern of celebrities' accounts being compromised to promote cryptocurrency scams. Despite the controversy, Real Madrid's head coach, Carlo Ancelotti, has publicly defended Mbappé, stating that the club is not worried about his performance. Mbappé, who recently moved to Real Madrid, has made an impressive debut but has yet to score a league goal this season.
