Supreme Court's YouTube Channel Just Got Hacked: Cryptocurrency Scam Unleashed!

New Delhi: In a shocking turn of events, the Supreme Court’s YouTube channel was hacked on Friday, leaving the nation stunned. The hacking incident has raised concerns over the security of the apex court’s digital presence.

The hacked channel is currently showing videos promoting a cryptocurrency developed by US-based company Ripple Labs. Among the videos is a blank one with the title “Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC’s $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION”, which has sparked widespread speculations about the intentions of the hackers.

The Supreme Court has been actively using its YouTube channel to disseminate information and live-stream important court proceedings. However, this hacking incident has compromised the integrity of the channel and left the authorities scrambling to regain control.

Ripple Labs, the company behind the promoted cryptocurrency, is a US-based blockchain technology firm that has been in the news recently due to its high-profile dispute with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The company has been accused of misusing XRP, its native cryptocurrency, to raise funds for its business operations.

The hacking incident has raised several questions about the vulnerability of the apex court’s digital infrastructure. An investigation has been launched to determine the identity of the hackers and their motives. In the meantime, the Supreme Court has taken steps to secure its digital presence and prevent such incidents in the future.
