In recent events, ZKsync and Matter Labs have regained control of their previously compromised X accounts. This follows a breach that occurred on May 13, 2025, affecting their social media presence.
The incident underscores security challenges in blockchain projects, affecting both market and investor sentiment. Immediate market reaction saw significant movements in trading volume and token price fluctuations.
Matter Labs issued warnings after the breach, recommending users to avoid interacting with its compromised accounts. As the Matter Labs Team stated, “The ZKsync and Matter Labs X accounts are now fully back under team control after a breach caused by compromised delegated accounts.” Both ZKsync and Matter Labs successfully restored their social accounts, ensuring enhanced security measures are in place.
Following the breach, $ZK token price experienced a 4.2% decrease. Trading volume rose by 28%, showing panic selling activity.

Potential outcomes could affect regulatory landscape and technological advancements. Previous breaches highlight ongoing risks, yet improved protocols may fortify defenses against similar future threats.
