Bankr developer deployer said on X that all Bankr users should turn on multi-factor authentication, or MFA, within their Bankr accounts rather than relying only on protections tied to social login services. The warning said enabling MFA only on X or other social sign-in accounts is not enough to keep funds in Bankr accounts safe. The reminder followed an earlier incident involving Bankr’s X account. According to deployer, the account was compromised and used to post a fake airdrop link, even though it had already been protected with a device-side Passkey. Deployer said a request had been sent to X to remove the fraudulent posts and that work was under way to help investigate how the account was breached. The update centers on account-level security and stresses that social-platform protections alone may not be sufficient for users holding funds through Bankr.
