Earlier, CoinGape reported that in June 2023, scamsters targeted Deaton’s Twitter account on his birthday. At the time, the hackers fraudulently promoted a cryptocurrency by the name $LAW token, which had a negligible market cap.

In a similar event, the attackers are now promoting a rewards program by name RippleX, asking users to claim tokens. The token give away is being pushed in the name of celebrating XRP’s triumph in the SEC lawsuit. After recognizing that the account was hacked, attorney Deaton warned the XRP holders to not fall for the XRPX rewards give away. “Jeremy has been hacked. Do not fall for this,” he warned.
On the other side, the XRP community is weighing in on the options left with the US SEC in the lawsuit. MetaLawMan posted on Twitter that he expects the SEC to file a request for interlocutory appeal within the next two weeks. It remains to be seen how the crypto market would react to the agency’s response to the Summary Judgment that said the programmatic sale of XRP to retail investors is not a security.
