The X account of famous rapper Wiz Khalifa<\/strong> was hacked to promote a memecoin called “WIZ.” Following the hack, posts from the account attempted to direct followers to this new coin. However, shortly afterward, the promoted WIZ coin’s value fell below $10,000.<\/p>\n

\"Wiz<\/p>\n

The “WIZ” memecoin, promoted after Wiz Khalifa<\/strong>‘s X account was hacked, was launched on the Solana-based memecoin platform pump.fun. Within the first 15 minutes after launch, the value of WIZ coin surged to $3.4 million, only to plummet within an hour, dropping its market cap below $28,000. According to DEX Screener data, WIZ coin is currently trading at a value of $8,400.<\/p>\n

Solscan data shows that the top two wallets bought approximately 155 million WIZ coins at launch for around $19,100 and sold them for a combined profit of $160,000.<\/p>\n

While the identity of the individual responsible for hacking Khalifa<\/strong>‘s account or the method used remains unconfirmed, independent blockchain investigator ZachXBT claims that the same hacker took over the account of Truth Terminal developer Andy Ayrey on October 29.<\/p>\n

In a public Telegram group message on November 3, Zach warned, “Do not buy Wiz Khalifa<\/strong>\u2019s Pump Fun [token]; it\u2019s the same hacker who recently compromised Andy Ayrey\u2019s account.”<\/p>\n
