Cosbycoin?
- When Hack Happened: 2011
- Who Did It: Unknown (Potentially the SomethingAwful Forums)
During the initial hype around digital currency in 2011, several cryptocurrencies were starting to come out. Bitcoin was naturally the biggest of them all and remains such today. While several popped up, only one managed to catch people’s attention beyond Bitcoin, that was Cosbycoin. Yes, it involved an image of the famed comedian Bill Cosby. While today his reputation is pretty terrible, now knowing what he did many years ago to women, the world was unaware of this at that time.
