PM Narendra Modi Twitter account hacked again after 2020, Tweets in support of Bitcoin

In the early hours of Sunday, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s verified Twitter account was hacked. ‘India has officially recognized bitcoin as legal cash,’ according to the country’s leader’s official account. This caused widespread consternation among locals, with many posting screenshots of the now-deleted tweet on microblogging sites.

“India has officially adopted bitcoin as legal tender,” said a tweet from the Prime Minister’s official Twitter account. The government has purchased 500 BTC and is distributing them to all country inhabitants.” Netizens were initially perplexed, but they soon began to wonder if ‘PM’s account had been hacked?’ Users also described the tampering as a “major breach.” There is currently very little information available concerning the occurrence. Official sources and the Prime Minister himself have made no official statements on the subject. Official sources are expected to issue a comment soon.

It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time Narendra Modi’s Twitter account has been hacked. It was hacked last year, and he sent out tweets requesting his followers to donate to a Bitcoin account. One of the PM’s official accounts, @narendramodi in, which is linked to his personal website and mobile app, urged to people to give Bitcoin. “I appeal to you all to generously donate to PM National Relief Fund for Covid-19, Now India begins with crypto currency,” the tweet read. Please consider making a Bitcoin donation…” Following this, Twitter launched an investigation into the horrible situation.
