Eric Semler's X account appears to have been hacked, with various posts promoting a newly created Solana-based token sharing the same ticker symbol as Semler Scientific on Nasdaq. The token, SMLR, experienced a 300% surge immediately after its launch but faced a significant drop, now down 77% from its peak. The hacked account suggested that the token aims to provide 'institutional-grade Bitcoin exposure' through a high-performance ecosystem with low fees. Additionally, posts indicated that a large portion of the token's supply had been sent to major cryptocurrency exchanges. CoinDesk has reached out to Semler Scientific for further comments on the situation, as the incident raises concerns within the cryptocurrency community regarding security and the integrity of influencer communications.
