Key Insights Doja Cat's X account was hacked to promote a Solana-based token called DOJA, with the singer warning her 24 million Instagram followers about the breach. The promoted DOJA token initially reached a $500,000 market cap but quickly collapsed by 96% to $22,000. This incident follows a similar hack of Metallica's X account last month. LOS ANGELES (MarketsXplora) - American singer-rapper Doja Cat, whose real name is Amala Zandile Dlamini, reported on Monday that her X (formerly Twitter) account had been compromised in an apparent attempt to promote a cryptocurrency token on the Solana blockchain. The artist, known for hit songs like "Say So" and "Kiss Me More," took to her Instagram account, which boasts 24 million followers, to alert fans of the security breach. "My Twitter's been hacked. These messages are not from me," Doja Cat stated in an Instagram story posted Monday evening Eastern Time. The compromised X account, followed by 5.6 million users, posted multiple messages endorsing a token with the ticker DOJA. "Keep buying DOJA," read one post, while another proclaimed it "The real queen of Solana DOJA," referencing a recent crypto-related post by fellow rapper Iggy Azalea. Read also!

The Doja Cat token, which the hacker seemed to be promoting, experienced a brief surge to a market capitalization of $500,000 following its initial launch. However, it subsequently plummeted by 96%, reaching a market cap of just $22,000 at the time of reporting. This incident follows a similar occurrence last month involving the legendary metal band Metallica, whose X account was also reportedly hacked to promote a Solana-based memecoin. As of press time, representatives for Doja Cat had not responded to requests for comment on the situation.
