ZachXBT: Fake Ledger Live App on Apple App Store Recently Led to 50+ Victims Losing $9.5M
On April 14, crypto detective ZachXBT shared on his social media channel that a fake Ledger Live app on the Apple App Store has led to over 50 suspected victims losing $9.5 million between April 7 and 13, per a community alert.
The stolen funds—covering Bitcoin, EVM-compatible chains, Solana, and Ripple—were laundered through more than 150 deposit addresses on KuCoin, linked to a centralized mixing service called AudiA6 that charges steep fees to clean illicit funds.
Apple removed the fake app yesterday, and the top three victims each lost a seven-figure sum.

Innora Exposes Saturn's Two Major Vulnerabilities: $35 Million Fund at Risk of Being Frozen, Privileged Address Can "Legally" Take Away 1/3 of Funds
Innora, a security firm, released a report on April 14 stating that the Ethereum-based financial protocol Saturn has two critical vulnerabilities:
- **Withdrawal Freeze Vulnerability**: Under normal operations, all user funds could be locked—for a minimum of 30 days, and potentially indefinitely in extreme cases. No hacker involvement is required; the protocol can trigger this on its own.
- **Privileged Address Withholding**: The protocol’s privileged address can legally withhold up to 33.33% of funds per transaction. Current data shows a single withholding could reach roughly $157,000, with a theoretical total risk of $4.26 million.
Innora noted that over 90% of Saturn’s assets are controlled by a privileged off-chain address, leaving users entirely reliant on trust. As of the report’s publication, the vulnerabilities remain unfixed.
