Vivek Ramaswamy’s X account hacked to promote fake crypto partnership

Vivek Ramaswamy’s account on X was hacked to falsely announce a partnership between the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency and USUAL.

The post claimed a partnership between the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency and the stablecoin issuer USUAL, stating that the collaboration would address the federal deficit using digital currencies. The tweet was quickly deleted after the breach was identified.

The fabricated announcement suggested the government would adopt stablecoins like USUAL to streamline operations and promote fiscal responsibility.
