Zeus Wallet has taken its services offline after experiencing a cyberattack, according to CoinTelegraph. The wallet’s founder, Evan Kaloudis, confirmed that no customer funds were compromised and that there were no vulnerabilities found in the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
The temporary shutdown was a precautionary measure to protect user assets and investigate the security breach. Despite the attack, the integrity of Zeus Wallet’s infrastructure and its integration with the Lightning Network remains intact.
For Japanese investors, this incident underscores the importance of robust security measures in crypto wallets, especially as Lightning Network adoption grows domestically and across Asia.
